Documentation
gcp-certificate-manager
Certificate Manager — the certificate map an external HTTPS load balancer
attaches to so it can select among certificates by SNI hostname. A map applies
standalone with nothing pre-existing, so that is the default path. Optionally,
when you supply a domain you control, the module also provisions a DNS
authorization, a Google-managed certificate validated by that
authorization, and a map entry binding the certificate to the hostname.
Works with Terraform and OpenTofu (>= 1.6), Google provider
>= 7.0, < 8.0.
Real domain required for the managed-certificate path. Setting
var.domaincreates a DNS authorization whose CNAME (exported asdns_authorization_record) you must publish in your DNS before Google can issue the certificate. Leavevar.domainnull for the standalone certificate-map-only path (the default).
What you get per module call:
- A Certificate Manager certificate map (always)
- When
domainis set: a DNS authorization + Google-managed certificate + a map entry wiring the certificate to the hostname
Requirements
| Requirement | Version |
|---|---|
| Terraform / OpenTofu | >= 1.6 |
hashicorp/google | >= 7.0, < 8.0 |
The Certificate Manager API (certificatemanager.googleapis.com) must be
enabled on the project.

gcp-certificate-authority
The DevOps tier does not persist the certificates it issues: no record, no CRL, no revocation - a year-long certificate from it can only answer a key compromise by the CA being distrusted whole. ENTERPRISE tier with the CRL published, a 90-day ceiling on every certificate, RSA below 2048 refused, and deletion protection on because deleting a CA invalidates everything it signed.
gcp-kms
Keyrings and rotation-enabled crypto keys with per-key IAM for CMEK across GCS, BigQuery, Cloud SQL and disks.
gcp-secret-manager
Secrets with versions, replication policy, rotation schedules, expiry and accessor IAM.
huawei-tls-certificate
A public TLS certificate bought through Huawei CCM, and its application. Applying is a purchase, so brand, type and validity have no defaults and every combination rule is checked at plan. It does not renew itself. The provider accepts Huawei's privacy terms on every application, so the module waits for a person to. Validation records appear one refresh after the first apply.
alicloud-ssl-certificate
A certificate uploaded into Certificate Management Service for SLB, ALB, CDN and API Gateway to reference. The private key is an argument, so it lands in the Terraform state and the README says so plainly. SM2 is a signing pair plus an encryption pair and the module refuses a half-filled set, which would upload something no client can handshake with.
azure-managed-certificate
A free App Service managed certificate for a custom subdomain, with its hostname binding, the SNI binding that puts it to use, and optionally the DNS records. Microsoft blocks issuance and renewal when the CNAME passes through anything before the app, so the module writes the direct record and refuses the wildcards, apex names and long hostnames the product does not support.
