Generate CSR

How do I generate a CSR for my domain host? They are asking me to generate one for my hoosting here on appwrite

Hello 👋
It sounds like your domain host is giving you 'old school' instructions for manual SSL, but with Appwrite, it's much easier!

The short answer: You don't need to generate a CSR. Appwrite handles SSL certificates automatically for you using Let's Encrypt.

Here is what you actually need to do:

1. Add the Domain: In your Appwrite Console, go to Settings > Custom Domains and add your domain (e.g., api.yourdomain.com).

2. Update DNS: Appwrite will give you a CNAME or A record value. You just need to go to your domain host's DNS settings and add that record.

3. Wait for Verification: Once the DNS propagates, Appwrite will automatically communicate with Let's Encrypt, verify your ownership, and issue the certificate for you.

If your host is insisting on a CSR:
They might think you are trying to install a third-party certificate that you bought from them. You don't need to do that! Appwrite's built-in SSL is free, automatic, and auto-renews.

Just follow the steps in the Custom Domains tab in your dashboard, and you’ll be live with HTTPS in no time! :appwriterocket:
