Question
How to use a command-line utility to manage certificates in Plesk?
Answer
The certificate utility allows managing client certificates through CLI. This utility allows performing the following tasks:
Creating and removing SSL certificates
Creating:
# plesk bin certificate --create "Site Certificate" -domain example.com -key-file /usr/local/keyfile.key -cert-file /usr/local/cert/certfile.cert
Note: Where keyfile.key is the private key and certfile.cert is the file of the certificate.
Removing:
# plesk bin certificate --remove "Site Certificate" -domain example.com
Assigning certificates to IP addresses
Assigning to the IP address 192.0.2.78:
# plesk bin certificate --assign-cert "Site Certificate" -admin -ip 192.0.2.78
Editing certain certificate parameters
For instance, renaming of a certificate:
# plesk bin certificate --update "Site Certificate" -domain example.com -new-name "New Certificate"
To see all available parameters, run the following:
# plesk bin certificate --help
Additional information about the utility is available in the documentation.
Note: On Linux systems, SSL certificates for Plesk are located in /usr/local/psa/var/certificates/
