Create a GoDaddy certificate authority

Preview feature

This feature is available in Preview and is not yet generally available (GA). Behavior may change before GA.

GoDaddy provides a service that streamlines the procurement and management of SSL/TLS certificates. CyberArk has partnered with GoDaddy to give you the ability to quickly and easily request and renew certificates.

Before you begin

You're going to need a few things to complete this procedure.

  • GoDaddy account

  • GoDaddy Customer #

    Note

    The Customer # field requires your GoDaddy ShopperID. GoDaddy uses both terms to refer to the same account identifier.

  • GoDaddy API Key

  • GoDaddy API Secret key
  • At least one active VSatellite for provisioning certificates to GoDaddy

For more information, refer to GoDaddy API Access, Usage, and Limitations

  1. Sign in to Certificate Manager - SaaS.

  2. Click Integrations > Certificate Authorities.

  3. Click New > Add Certificate Authority connector.

  4. Enter the Name.
  5. Select a VSatellite.
  6. In the Certificate Authority Type dropdown, select GoDaddy CA Connector.
  7. Click Next.
