This how-to will walk you through installing an SSL/TLS certificate in Plesk. These instructions were generated and tested using Plesk Onyx 17.8 Web Pro edition.
Note: Before you install a certificate, you will first need to generate a certificate signing request (CSR) and submit it to SSL.com for validation and signing. Please refer to our how-to on CSR generation in Plesk and guide to submitting a CSR.Instructions for installing your certificate vary depending on whether or not you generated your keypair and CSR in Plesk or not.
