Reference documentation and code samples for the Compute V1 Client class SslCertificate.
Represents an SSL certificate resource. Google Compute Engine has two SSL certificate resources: *Global*RegionalThe global SSL certificates (sslCertificates) are used by: - Global external Application Load Balancers - Classic Application Load Balancers - Proxy Network Load Balancers (with target SSL proxies) The regional SSL certificates (regionSslCertificates) are used by: - Regional external Application Load Balancers - Regional internal Application Load Balancers Optionally, certificate file contents that you upload can contain a set of up to five PEM-encoded certificates. The API call creates an object (sslCertificate) that holds this data. You can use SSL keys and certificates to secure connections to a load balancer. For more information, read Creating and using SSL certificates, SSL certificates quotas and limits, and Troubleshooting SSL certificates.

Parameters
Name
Description
data
array
Optional. Data for populating the Message object.
↳ certificate
string
A value read into memory from a certificate file. The certificate file must be in PEM format. The certificate chain must be no greater than 5 certs long. The chain must include at least one intermediate cert.
↳ creation_timestamp
string
[Output Only] Creation timestamp in RFC3339 text format.
↳ description
string
An optional description of this resource. Provide this property when you create the resource.
↳ expire_time
string
[Output Only] Expire time of the certificate. RFC3339
↳ id
int|string
[Output Only] The unique identifier for the resource. This identifier is defined by the server.
↳ kind
string
[Output Only] Type of the resource. Always compute#sslCertificate for SSL certificates.
Configuration and status of a managed SSL certificate.
↳ name
string
Name of the resource. Provided by the client when the resource is created. The name must be 1-63 characters long, and comply with RFC1035. Specifically, the name must be 1-63 characters long and match the regular expression[a-z]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])?which means the first character must be a lowercase letter, and all following characters must be a dash, lowercase letter, or digit, except the last character, which cannot be a dash.
↳ private_key
string
A value read into memory from a write-only private key file. The private key file must be in PEM format. For security, only insert requests include this field.
↳ region
string
[Output Only] URL of the region where the regional SSL Certificate resides. This field is not applicable to global SSL Certificate.
↳ self_link
string
[Output only] Server-defined URL for the resource.
Configuration and status of a self-managed SSL certificate.
↳ subject_alternative_names
array
[Output Only] Domains associated with the certificate via Subject Alternative Name.
↳ type
string
(Optional) Specifies the type of SSL certificate, either "SELF_MANAGED" or "MANAGED". If not specified, the certificate is self-managed and the fields certificate and private_key are used. Check the Type enum for the list of possible values.
getCertificate
