{{ .Description | trimspace }}

Certificate resource management consists of two independent processes:
* key creation and certificate signing request (`key` + `csr`)
* certificate signing by the issuer (`crt`)

For a complete certificate creation cycle, both of the above steps must be performed. In this case the `sign {}` block must be specified in the configuration.

If you need to import the current state of the certificate resource, then do not specify the `sign{}` block.

Importing an external certificate is also done without specifying the `sign{}` block, because the certificate should have already been signed by the issuer at this step.
