With the changes coming to the maximum length of time certificates can be valid, it would be awesome if there was a way to automate this replacement. While it will still be manageable for the next few years, it will eventually be untenable to do it manually for all the different certificates we have to manage in IT . We've looked at a couple solutions that provide automated cert renewals already, but there has to be an entry point (api or other integration) for it to be able to communicate with Solarwinds and it doesnt seem that there is one.
per the documentation (https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/swsd/content/completeguidetoswsd/certificate-management.htm) it's a very click heavy process
