2 min readAn original planning guide. Use the linked primary documentation for platform details and the supported procedure for your environment.
List public hostnames
Include apex, www, relevant subdomains, and important entry links. Identify the intended HTTPS destination for each.
Inspect the connection
Use browser security information or approved diagnostics to check hostname coverage, certificate validity, and the observed connection behavior.
Review page resources
Inspect representative pages for insecure resource requests or mixed-content errors. Record the actual resource and where it is introduced.
Verify user journeys
Test redirects, forms, sign-in, downloads, and integrations through intended public URLs. Assign certificate or application issues to the correct owner.
Worked scenario
See the plan in practice.
The homepage uses HTTPS but an old image URL uses HTTP. Record the source of that URL instead of replacing the site's certificate at random.
Review your result
Your acceptance checklist
Hostnames covered- Resources reviewed
- Journeys tested
Use these checks to identify gaps in your https review note. Assign an owner to any unresolved item before the next dependent step.
The terms behind the task
- HTTPSHTTP communicated over an encrypted TLS connection that protects transport between participating endpoints.
- TLS certificateA signed digital document that associates an identity, such as domain names, with a public key used in TLS authentication.
- RedirectA response or mechanism that sends a user agent from one URL to another.
