SCM Authorization

If your certificate has been uploaded to Cloud Certificate Manager (CCM) of Huawei Cloud, you can enable SCM authorization so that you can directly obtain the certificate content when configuring certificates on CDN.

Constraints

  1. IAM users can enable SCM authorization only when they have the following permissions.

  2. After creating an agency, IAM users can configure certificates for domain names when they have the following permissions.
    • cdn:configuration:modifyHttpsConf

Enabling SCM Authorization

  4. Click OK. The system creates an agency named CDNAccessScm for you on the IAM console. CDN now has the permission to list your SCM certificates and export certificate details.
    • Do not delete this agency. Otherwise, CDN cannot obtain certificate content when you configure an HTTPS certificate.
