Add Actalis

Actalis issues certificates through ACME but requires an External Account Binding (EAB) key pair first. Its free tier is limited to a single domain plus its www variant - fine for one site, not for a fleet.

1. Create an EAB key pair with Actalis

1. Register for an ACME account at actalis.com.
2. Request EAB credentials through your Actalis account area.
3. Note the Key ID and HMAC key issued to you.

2. Connect it in aethercert

1. Go to Manage > Certificate Authorities and click Add certificate authority.
2. Set Type to ACME CA (public or internal).
3. Set Provider to Actalis - this fills in the correct ACME directory URL automatically.
4. Paste the Key ID into EAB key ID.
5. Paste the HMAC key into EAB HMAC key.
6. Name it "Actalis" and save.

3. Use it

Pick this CA when creating a certificate under Build > Certificate Jobs. Given the free tier's domain limit, Actalis is best suited to a single primary domain rather than a whole fleet - use Let's Encrypt or another CA for everything else.
