How to Enable AutoSSL and Install SSL Certificate in cPanel

This wiki explains how to enable AutoSSL for your domains via cPanel and install an SSL certificate. The AutoSSL feature issues certificates automatically and handles renewals without any manual intervention.

Note: To use AutoSSL, your domain must be using the nameservers provided by your hosting provider (typically pointing to the cPanel server).

If you manage your own DNS, ensure that the domain’s A record correctly points to the IP address of the cPanel server.

Steps to Enable AutoSSL

Log into your cPanel account and navigate to SSL/TLS Status in the Security section.

Search for the domain you want to enable SSL for.

Select the domain names that you want SSL on (If you're unsure, you can select them all). Then click the Run AutoSSL button.

AutoSSL will take a few minutes to complete. Once finished, the page will display a success notification.

Conclusion

AutoSSL in cPanel provides a quick and hassle-free way to secure your domains with HTTPS. Once enabled, it automatically installs and renews SSL certificates, ensuring continuous protection with minimal effort.
