Automated SSL Certificate Monitoring and Renewal Alerts
detail.loadingPreview
Proactively monitor your SSL certificates, receive timely alerts before expiry, and automate updates to prevent service disruptions. This workflow ensures your online presence remains secure and uninterrupted.
About This Workflow
This n8n workflow automates the critical task of SSL certificate management. It begins by fetching your existing SSL certificate information from Notion. Then, it checks the expiry date using an external SSL checker API. If a certificate is nearing expiration (within 14 days), the workflow triggers an update in Notion, marking its status and logging the last check time. It also generates a consolidated report of expiring certificates to inform relevant stakeholders. Finally, it can optionally trigger another workflow to handle credential updates, ensuring a seamless renewal process and preventing potential downtime.
Key Features
- Automated SSL certificate expiration detection.
- Proactive email or notification alerts for upcoming expirations.
- Automatic status updates in Notion for easy tracking.
- Consolidated reporting of all expiring certificates.
- Integration with external SSL checking APIs for accurate data.
How To Use
- Configure Triggers: Set up either a
Weekly Triggeror use theManual Trigger('When clicking ‘Execute workflow’') to initiate the workflow. - Integrate Notion: Connect your Notion account and ensure you have a database set up to store SSL certificate information. Configure the
Get SSL InfoandUpdate SSL Infonodes with your Notion credentials and database page IDs. - Set Up SSL Checker: In the
Check SSLnode, replace{{ $json.name }}with the actual domain name you want to check. You might need to dynamically pass this from a previous node. - Define Expiry Logic: Adjust the
Ifnode conditions (e.g.,leftValue: '={{ $('Refresh SSL Status').item.json.result.days_left }}',rightValue: 14) to set your preferred alert threshold. - Customize Refresh Logic: Review and modify the
Refresh SSL Statusnode's JavaScript code if you need different status labels or logic for certificate expiry. - Configure Notifications: Adapt the
Merge Contentnode to format your notifications as needed. You can integrate additional nodes (e.g., Send Email, Slack) after this to send alerts. - Optional Workflow Execution: If you have a separate workflow to handle credential updates, configure the
Execute Workflownode with the correctworkflowId.
