SSL Expiry Alert with SSL-Checker.io

Use Case

Managing SSL certificates manually can be time-consuming and error-prone, often leading to unexpected downtime or security risks due to expired certificates.

What This Workflow Does

This workflow automatically monitors SSL certificates for a list of websites, checks their expiry status using SSL-Checker.io, and sends timely notifications if a certificate is about to expire.

Setup

Add your credentials for Google Sheets, Gmail, and SSL-Checker.io.

Create a Google Sheet with a list of URLs for the websites you want to monitor.

Configure the workflow to check the SSL status weekly.

Set up email notifications to alert you when a certificate is close to expiry.

Activate the workflow to automate monitoring and notification.

How to Adjust It to Your Needs

• Customize the URL Source: Replace Google Sheets with another data source like Airtable or CSV files.
• Modify Notification Thresholds: Change the expiry threshold (e.g., notify for 14 days instead of 7).
• Add Additional Actions: Integrate with tools like Slack or Teams for team-wide notifications.
• Automate Renewal Requests: Add a step to send renewal requests directly to your SSL provider if a certificate is nearing expiry.
