CertMate

Getting started

1. Deploy the template and open the app domain.
2. Log in with the API bearer token: it is auto-generated by the template and stored in the API_BEARER_TOKEN environment variable (Dokploy → your service → Environment). The same token authenticates REST API requests (Authorization: Bearer <token>).
3. In Settings, set your Let's Encrypt email and add credentials for your DNS provider (Cloudflare, Route53, etc.) to issue certificates through DNS-01 challenges.

Notes

• CLOUDFLARE_TOKEN can optionally be set as an environment variable instead of configuring it in the UI.
• Certificates, application data and backups are persisted in the certmate_certificates, certmate_data and certmate_backups volumes.
• API documentation is available at /docs/ (Swagger) and /redoc/ on your domain.
