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.

To find unassigned certificates¶

Sign in to Venafi Control Plane.
Click Inventory > Certificates.
In the filtering options at the top of the inventory, select the following:
In the Certificates drop-down, select All Certificates.
In the Add Criteria drop-down, select Applications. A new Applications drop-down opens.
In the Applications drop-down, select Not assigned to an application.
Click Apply Filter.

A re-filtered certificate list is displayed.
