Assigning or reassigning a certificate to an application

Discovery finds and brings into your inventory many certificates that have not been assigned to an application. TLS Protect Cloud allows you to assign these certificates to their appropriate applications.

Before assigning or reassigning certificates to applications, wait until after certificate discovery is complete.

  1. Sign in to Venafi Control Plane.
  2. Click Inventory > Certificates Next Gen.
  3. At the top of the inventory, click Filters:
  4. In the Columns dropdown list, select Applications.
  5. In the Operator dropdown list, select in.
  6. In the Value dropdown list, select Not assigned to an application.

    A re-filtered certificate list is displayed.

To assign a certificate to an application

  5. Click Assign.

    You'll see a notification that the certificate was assigned to the application.

To remove a certificate's assignment to an application
