How to add a certificate to an Azure RM website with Powershell

Question

Lightly related to How to add an SSL certificate to an azure website using powershell?

I am trying to add a certificate to an Azure RM website via Powershell.

Answer 1

In the latest release of Azure PowerShell v 1.1.0, there is a number of new commands to handle SSL certificates in Azure Web Apps

You can upload the certificate and bind it to hostname using

New-AzureRmWebAppSSLBinding -ResourceGroupName myresourcegroup -WebAppName mytestapp -CertificateFilePath PathToPfxFile -CertificatePassword PlainTextPwd -Name www.contoso.com

And then remove the binding but without removing the certificate, the app should be able to use it after you add a app setting referencing that cert (this should be done using the portal - the PowerShell command to do so will come soon - No ETA for now)

Remove-AzureRmWebAppSSLBinding -ResourceGroupName myresourcegroup -WebAppName mytestapp -Name www.contoso.com -DeleteCertificate $false
