Connect SSL Cert to Route53 Hosted Domain

For some reason I cannot find a yes or no if this is even possible but I am assuming that it would be. I have a domain through AWS that was purchased through AWS Route53. I also created an SSL Cert through AWS Certificate Manager. Now I'm just trying to add that certificate to the domain. I would think that since it is all interconnected that it would just been applied after I approved it and it finished the setup but alas, it has not. So my question is how/where do I connect my SSL Cert to my Route53 hosted domain?

SSL certificates are not connected to a domain's DNS record (via Route 53).

Instead, they are connected to one or more specific infrastructure components.

SSL certificates that you create from ACM can be used with:

  • AWS Elastic Load Balancer
  • AWS CloudFront

Create your infrastructure including one or more of those components and then attach your ACM SSL certificate to that.

See the ACM FAQ: https://aws.amazon.com/certificate-manager/faqs/
