Apply for a certificate
To apply for a certificate, follow these steps:
- From the NAVER Cloud Platform console, click Services > Security > Certificate Manager in order.
- Click the Certificate List menu.
- Click the [Issue certificate] button.

- FQDN (example: www.example.com)
- Apex domain (example: example.com)
- Available domain name types
Precautions related to the Global Edge Dedicated certificate are as follows:
- Only FQDN domains can be entered. Wild card domains cannot be entered.
- The service domain applied with the Global Edge Dedicated certificate must be the same as the certificate provisioned in Korea/Japan.
- If the certificate provisioned in Korea/Japan is a wild card domain, enter the domain name as the Edge service domain.
2. Validation methods
Global Edge dedicated certificates only provide DNS validation method.
- DNS validation: a method of validation if you have DNS editing permissions. For more information about domain ownership validation method, see DNS validation.
3. Review and request
Review the certificate information you requested and the validation method.
- The validation values to be entered in the DNS TXT's Record Name and Record Value will be generated. You can view the generated validation value and validation status in the certificate details in the Certificate List.
4. Application completion
After the application is complete, the certificate status appears as In progress in the Certificate List.
Conditions for a certificate issuance
If validation is performed and the validation status of All domains applied is Succeeded, the certificate will be issued. If issued successfully, the certificate status appears as Normal, and information such as issuance date, authentication start date, and authentication end date in the certificate details are updated.
Validation status types include In progress, Succeeded, Timeout, and Failed.
Validation status
Validation status can be viewed in Certificate List > Certificate Details.
| Validation Status | Description |
|---|---|
| In Progress | The validation value has been generated using the domain ownership validation method selected during the certificate issuance request, and it is currently waiting for the validation result. |
| Success | The domain ownership validation in progress has been successfully completed. |
| Timeout | The validation has exceeded 72 hours in the In Progress status. The domain ownership validation can no longer proceed after the timeout. A new certificate issuance request is required |
| Failed | The validation value generation failed using the domain ownership validation method selected during the certificate issuance request. In case of DNS validation, if the validation value generation fails, it may result in a failure status. |
Validation method
- If the validation method is DNS validation, 1 DNS validation value is generated for each domain.
- After the certificate application is complete, Certificate Manager checks for successful validation repeatedly for 72 hours. If the validation for all domains you applied for is successful, the validation status appears as Succeeded and the certificate is issued within minutes.
- If the validation is not successful within 72 hours, the certificate status will be Timeout and the certificate can no longer be issued. If the validation status is Timeout, apply for a new certificate.
