viewer Certificate
Parameters
A complex type that determines the distribution's SSL/TLS configuration for communicating with viewers. A complex type that determines the distribution's SSL/TLS configuration for communicating with viewers. If the distribution doesn't use `Aliases`
(also known as alternate domain names or CNAMEs)—that is, if the distribution uses the CloudFront domain name such as `d111111abcdef8.cloudfront.net`
—set `CloudFrontDefaultCertificate`
to `true`
and leave all other fields empty. If the distribution uses `Aliases`
(alternate domain names or CNAMEs), use the fields in this type to specify the following settings: + Which viewers the distribution accepts HTTPS connections from: only viewers that support server name indication (SNI) (recommended), or all viewers including those that don't support SNI. + To accept HTTPS connections from only viewers that support SNI, set `SSLSupportMethod`
to `sni-only`
. This is recommended. Most browsers and clients support SNI. (In CloudFormation, the field name is `SslSupportMethod`
. Note the different capitalization.) + To accept HTTPS connections from all viewers, including those that don't support SNI, set `SSLSupportMethod`
to `vip`
. This is not recommended, and results in additional monthly charges from CloudFront. (In CloudFormation, the field name is `SslSupportMethod`
. Note the different capitalization.) + The minimum SSL/TLS protocol version that the distribution can use to communicate with viewers. To specify a minimum version, choose a value for `MinimumProtocolVersion`
. For more information, see Security Policy in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide. + The location of the SSL/TLS certificate, (ACM) (recommended) or (IAM). You specify the location by setting a value in one of the following fields (not both): + `ACMCertificateArn`
(In CloudFormation, this field name is `AcmCertificateArn`
. Note the different capitalization.) + `IAMCertificateId`
(In CloudFormation, this field name is `IamCertificateId`
. Note the different capitalization.) All distributions support HTTPS connections from viewers. To require viewers to use HTTPS only, or to redirect them from HTTP to HTTPS, use `ViewerProtocolPolicy`
in the `CacheBehavior`
or `DefaultCacheBehavior`
. To specify how CloudFront should use SSL/TLS to communicate with your custom origin, use `CustomOriginConfig`
. For more information, see Using HTTPS with CloudFront and Using Alternate Domain Names and HTTPS in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide.
