How to verify SSL for a custom domain

Verify SSL for a RankWatch whitelabel custom domain after DNS records pass.

Prerequisites

  • Organization owner; whitelabel package feature when gated
  • DNS CNAME/TXT already verified

SSL issuance follows successful DNS verification in the whitelabel wizard. Do not share the portal URL until HTTPS is ready.
