Certificates

Use these commands to manage certificates for mTLS connections.

The mtls-certificate commands manage client certificates for Worker subrequests. The cert commands manage both mTLS client certificates and Certificate Authority (CA) chain certificates, primarily for use with Hyperdrive configurations.

`mtls-certificate`

Manage client certificates used for mTLS connections in subrequests.

These certificates can be used in mtls_certificate bindings, which allow a Worker to present the certificate when establishing a connection with an origin that requires client authentication (mTLS).

`mtls-certificate upload`

Upload an mTLS certificate

npx wrangler mtls-certificate upload

--certstring required
The path to a certificate file (.pem) containing a chain of certificates to upload
--keystring required
The path to a file containing the private key for your leaf certificate
--namestring
The name for the certificate

Global flags

--vboolean alias: --version
Show version number
--cwdstring
Run as if Wrangler was started in the specified directory instead of the current working directory
--configstring alias: --c
Path to Wrangler configuration file
--envstring alias: --e
Environment to use for operations, and for selecting .env and .dev.vars files
--env-filestring
Path to an .env file to load - can be specified multiple times - values from earlier files are overridden by values in later files
--experimental-provisionboolean aliases: --x-provisiondefault: true
Experimental: Enable automatic resource provisioning
--experimental-auto-createboolean alias: --x-auto-createdefault: true
Automatically provision draft bindings with new resources
--install-skillsboolean default: false
Install Cloudflare skills for detected AI coding agents before running the command
--profilestring

The following is an example of using the upload command to upload an mTLS certificate.

npx wrangler mtls-certificate upload --cert cert.pem --key key.pem --name my-origin-cert

Uploading mTLS Certificate my-origin-cert...
Success! Uploaded mTLS Certificate my-origin-cert
ID: 99f5fef1-6cc1-46b8-bd79-44a0d5082b8d
Issuer: CN=my-secured-origin.com,OU=my-team,O=my-org,L=San Francisco,ST=California,C=US
Expires: 1/01/2025

You can then add this certificate as a binding in your Wrangler configuration file:

{
	"mtls_certificates": [
		{
			"binding": "MY_CERT",
			"certificate_id": "99f5fef1-6cc1-46b8-bd79-44a0d5082b8d",
		},
	],
}

[[mtls_certificates]]
binding = "MY_CERT"
certificate_id = "99f5fef1-6cc1-46b8-bd79-44a0d5082b8d"

Note that the certificate and private keys must be in separate (typically .pem) files when uploading.
