REQUIRED FLAGS

Configuration for creating and uploading certificates to Cloud Certificate

Manager.

Exactly one of these must be specified:

Configuration for uploading self-managed certificates and keys.
--certificate-file=CERTIFICATE_FILE

Certificate data in PEM-encoded form.

This flag argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--private-key-file=PRIVATE_KEY_FILE

Private key data in PEM-encoded form

This flag argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

Configuration for creating new managed certificates.
--domains=[DOMAINS,...]

Public domain name(s) to create a certificate for.

If a DNS authorization is provided for the domain, the certificate will be validated against the DNS record you added as part of the authorization flow.

If no DNS authorization is provided, Certificate Manager will attempt to validate the domain against the serving endpoint directly.

You may list multiple, comma-separated domain names to include multiple names as Subject Alternative Names on the issued certificate.

This flag argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--dns-authorizations=[DNS_AUTHORIZATIONS,...]

Name(s) of the DNS authorizations for each listed domain.

Note that each domain requires a matching authorization, and any domain that fails authorization will prevent issuance and/or renewal of the certificate.

To reference multiple DNS authorizations, provide a list of comma separated DNS authorization resource names or URLs. For example:

$ gcloud alpha certificate-manager certificates create \ --dns-authorizations=api-example-com,www-example-com

OPTIONAL FLAGS

--async

Return immediately, without waiting for the operation in progress to complete.

--description=DESCRIPTION

Human-readable description of the resource.

--labels=[KEY=VALUE,...]

List of label KEY=VALUE pairs to add.

Keys must start with a lowercase character and contain only hyphens (-), underscores (_), lowercase characters, and numbers. Values must contain only hyphens (-), underscores (_), lowercase characters, and numbers.

--scope=SCOPE; default="DEFAULT"

default

Certificates with DEFAULT scope are used for Load Balancing and Cloud CDN.

If unsure, choose this option.
