How to get the Cert ARN in order to reuse it later

[Vad1mo]

I need to get the ARN of the Generated Cert. I see it in the console but I would like to be able to feed the ARN into AWS::CloudFront::Distribution

Is there a way how this can be looked up?

Maybe on the CLI the ARN should be printed out even if you rerun the create-cert, right now it is only displayed once.

If it is not possible to reference the arn from the plugin in the serverless.yml, then there could be a new command added
eg. sls write-cert-info. This command would then write a ymlto disk cert-info.ymlwith that content

acm-cert-arn: arn:aws:acm:us-east-1:16dxxxxxxx

Then in the serverless.yml this coulld be referenced as follows

AcmCertificateArn: ${file(../cert-info.yml):acm-cert-arn}

This might not be the optimal format, but one thing that works out of the box is:

serverless info > cert-info

You will have to parse the file, but that can help you move on.
I can see if I can add some of your other suggestions next week. If urgent feel free to create a pr

Thx for the tip, this is a good workaround.

sls deploy --acm-cert-arn $(serverless info | grep -o -E "(arn:aws:acm:.+?\s\B)")

finally got around to implement your suggestions. you can now add a setting to the plugin configuration in serverless.yml "writeCertInfoToFile". If set to true a file called cert-info.yml will be created, default is false
