does the digitalocean loadbalancer support wildcard certificate (no CertManager)

Posted on September 16, 2021

I succeeded in running SSL with nginx ingress and the load balancer but always when I need to include a new subdomain I generate a new SSL certificate, is there a way to use *.example.com with the load balancer to include all subdomains and just put the certificate ID into the ingress service

Hello @hatembentayeb

You cannot currently create wildcard SSL certificates using DigitalOcean’s Let’s Encrypt integration. Instead, choose the Bring your own certificate option to add custom wildcard certificates.

But this should be available in coming months, but there is no confined ETA that we can share at this point.
