Since moving my external DNS to ClouDNS, they have added a VERY useful service. The time has come to put it to use!
Important Notes
- This service is only available if your account is Premium M or better
- You will need to enable an API user
- (do that here')
Step 1 : Create the cert
In your ClouDNS dashboard, select DNS Hosting, then select the domain you want to add SSL to.
Then click the Free SSL button.
Follow the directions given & then wait for it.
(In this example, I've used the "Let's Encrypt" option. May look into "ZeroSSL" later...)
Step 2 : Download the cert
Download the cert via their API:
curl "https://api.cloudns.net/dns/freessl-get.xml?auth-id=AUTHID&auth-password=PASSWORD&domain-name=DOMAIN"
Step 3 : Make the cert useable
(This is where it's gonna get interesting...)
