# How to Include or Exclude a Domain from AutoSSL in cPanel

You can manage whether your domain is included or excluded from AutoSSL in cPanel. If your domain is newly created, wait a few hours for cPanel to automatically install an SSL. You can check the AutoSSL log from **cPanel > SSL/TLS Status > Certificate Status**.

### To Include a Domain:

1. Log in to your **cPanel account**.
2. In the **Security** section, click on **SSL/TLS Status**.

3. Under **Domain**, select the domain you want to include.
4. Click on **Include x domain(s) during AutoSSL**. The selected domains/sub-domains will be included in AutoSSL.
