    Hello @Panu Oksala ,

    As per this documentation - For the Front Door managed certificate option, the certificates are autorotated by Front Door. If you are using a Front Door managed certificate and see that the certificate expiry date is less than 60 days away, file a support ticket.

    So my understanding is Front Door will autorotate/auto-renew the certificate before 60 days of expiration. However, if the expiration date displayed is under 60 days, then the autorotation hasn't taken place and customers should take actions by submitting a support case.

    However, I am contacting the Front Door backend team to get a confirmation on same. Will keep you updated.

    Kindly let us know if you need any further assistance on this issue from our end.

    Hello! It seems like I've got an issue with autorenewal. It should happen 90 days before expiry, but number of certificates is almost 30 days to expire.

    The product is Front Door Standard/Premium (Preview).

    Could you please help me overcome this expiration issue?
