[Moderator’s note: Heroku recently announced automatic integration with Let’s Encrypt] [image] Announcing Free and Automated SSL Certs For All Paid Dynos We are excited to announce that Automated Certificate Management is generally available, at no additional charge, for all applications running on Hobby... Hello, I’m really new on using SSL certificates, and I don’t have much experience on it. If possible, can anyone help me or explain me if it’s possible to use Let’s Encrypt with Heroku, and how? Thank you so much. Best regards, Enric

I found it, true. However, http-01 is not in there. I’m just trying to solve a problem. I don’t feel like I need to learn how everything in the internet works to minute detail to solve my problem; Particularly when there are domain experts (i.e. you). Saying rtfm is all fine & good, however sometimes you need to wtfm in a sufficient way first. Good thing we have a technology called search engines, which will help the next person who is attempting the same thing I am. That person can reference this topic! I did what I thought was appropriate research before asking. Thank you for clearing up the unknowns.

Meh, looks like there are still a lot of outdated versions in the search results, the most up-to-date one is at https://github.com/ietf-wg-acme/acme/blob/master/draft-ietf-acme-acme.md#http

Yes, expressing things is hard because context is implicit… I’ll do my best to read this doc, build, & express the context to what you said, if you aren’t willing to.

Hi, if you’re using Ruby on Rails you could try letsencrypt-plugin: [image] lgromanowski/letsencrypt-plugin letsencrypt-plugin - :lock_with_ink_pen: Let's encrypt plugin for Ruby on Rails applications and then please follow Heroku guide: [image] SSL Endpoint | Heroku Dev Center Enabling and configuring SSL on custom domains using the SSL endpoint add-on.

I’m using node.js & I found the carefully guarded answer; so I’m a cool kid now B-) ./letsencrypt-auto certonly --manual -d This opened an interactive command line dialog. Note that I had to deploy a file in /.well-known/acme-challenge/ with the contents specified by the interactive letsencrypt-auto command. I then ran: sudo heroku certs:update /etc/letsencrypt/live/ /cert.pem /etc/letsencrypt/live/ /privkey.pem Note that is specified in the letsencrypt-auto command. In case you are interested in streamlining your UX, the url currently must be http. I had a http -> https redirect that I needed to temporarily disable to make this process work. Since I did work in documenting how to make letsencrypt work with heroku, please add me to your list of contributers :slight_smile:

There are some non-obvious security concerns with supporting HTTPS for http-01 challenges, see this post for more details.

@enric Please mark this thread as [Solved] if this solves your issue…

Sorry @riking, what do you mean by “switch to the webroot method”? Do I need to modify this command ./letsencrypt-auto certonly --manual -d to achieve it or is this something else? Thank you

I just made a wrapper for getting certificates on Cloud-Foundry - which might just work with Heroku. It uses the Heroku python buildpack. [image] bsyk/cf-letsencrypt cf-letsencrypt - Let's Encrypt wrapper for Cloud-Foundry
