====== How to get your SSL Certificate ======

After your certificate has been created, you will see it in your list of SSL certificates on your SSL management page.

**1.** To get your certificate (in order to install it on your server), start by going to your list of SSL certificates, and click on the certificate in question on the left-hand site of the page.

**2.** You will then see your certificate's information page. Click on the link "**Get**" to get the certificate:

{{ en:ssl:ssl-get-en.png }} 

Doing this will bring up a page that will show you your certificate in a text box:

<file>
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

....seemingly random text...

-----END CERTIFICATE-----
</file>

3. Copy the text in the box. All of the text, including the -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- and the -----END CERTIFICATE-----.

4. Paste the text into a **plain text** editor and save the file with the extension .crt

This will be the file that you will install on your server.
