Resource: SslCertificate
Represents an SSL certificate resource.
Google Compute Engine has two SSL certificate resources:
The global SSL certificates (sslCertificates) are used by: 
- Global external Application Load Balancers
- Classic Application Load Balancers
- Proxy Network Load Balancers (with target SSL proxies)
The regional SSL certificates (regionSslCertificates) are used by: 
- Regional external Application Load Balancers
- Regional internal Application Load Balancers
Optionally, certificate file contents that you upload can contain a set of up to five PEM-encoded certificates. The API call creates an object (sslCertificate) that holds this data. You can use SSL keys and certificates to secure connections to a load balancer. For more information, read Creating and using SSL certificates, SSL certificates quotas and limits, and Troubleshooting SSL certificates.

 [Output Only] Type of the resource. Always  | 
| id | 
 [Output Only] The unique identifier for the resource. This identifier is defined by the server. | 
| creationTimestamp | 
 [Output Only] Creation timestamp in RFC3339 text format. | 
| name | 
 Name of the resource. Provided by the client when the resource is created. The name must be 1-63 characters long, and comply with RFC1035. Specifically, the name must be 1-63 characters long and match the regular expression  | 
| description | 
 An optional description of this resource. Provide this property when you create the resource. | 
| selfLink | 
 [Output only] Server-defined URL for the resource. | 
| certificate | 
 A value read into memory from a certificate file. The certificate file must be in PEM format. The certificate chain must be no greater than 5 certs long. The chain must include at least one intermediate cert. | 
| privateKey | 
 A value read into memory from a write-only private key file. The private key file must be in PEM format. For security, only  | 
| managed | 
 Configuration and status of a managed SSL certificate. | 
| managed.domains[] | 
 The domains for which a managed SSL certificate will be generated. Each Google-managed SSL certificate supports up to the maximum number of domains per Google-managed SSL certificate. | 
| managed.status | 
 [Output only] Status of the managed certificate resource. | 
| managed.domainStatus | 
 [Output only] Detailed statuses of the domains specified for managed certificate resource. | 
| selfManaged | 
 Configuration and status of a self-managed SSL certificate. | 
| selfManaged.certificate | 
 A local certificate file. The certificate must be in PEM format. The certificate chain must be no greater than 5 certs long. The chain must include at least one intermediate cert. | 
| selfManaged.privateKey | 
 A write-only private key in PEM format. Only  | 
| type | 
 (Optional) Specifies the type of SSL certificate, either "SELF_MANAGED" or "MANAGED". If not specified, the certificate is self-managed and the fields  | 
| subjectAlternativeNames[] | 
 [Output Only] Domains associated with the certificate via Subject Alternative Name. | 
| expireTime | 
 [Output Only] Expire time of the certificate. RFC3339 | 
| region | 
 [Output Only] URL of the region where the regional SSL Certificate resides. This field is not applicable to global SSL Certificate. |
