SSL Certificate renewal

Question

Hey,

we are deploying a new certificate on our environment since the last once is expiring.
we are performing the deployment of the certificate using ARM template to the "bring your own certificate".
i see the certificate on the list, but since this is an internal app i dont have a way to connect directly to it to see if is using the new certificate for the SSL handshake.
anyone have an idea how i can verify that the webapp is using the new certificate, maybe we need to restart the webapp, maybe it takes 1-2 hours?

thanks
Dor

DorMarcovitch-5524, Thanks for the question!

Since you have posted the question on azure-webapp tag, just to clarify, are you leveraging Azure App Service WebApp, and attempting to upload private certificate, as outlined in the following docs?

Secure connections by adding and managing TLS/SSL certificates in Azure App Service

Microsoft.Web certificates

To assist you better, please do provide more details about your Azure resource, internal app, and your scenario.

Just to highlight, on App Service WebApp, you need to bind the certificate, as outlined in this doc: Renew uploaded certificate

Kindly let us know, I'll follow-up with you further.
