Add a Self-Managed SSL Certificate for B2C Commerce

Add a self-managed SSL certificate to a hostname for a zone, validate it, and map DNS so the hostname's traffic routes to its zone. You upload and renew self-managed certificates yourself.

Note
Note Self-managed SSL certificates aren't available on SCAPI zones. Salesforce manages the SCAPI hostname and certificates. See SCAPI Zone Support for B2C Commerce.
