# How to add an Amazon ACM CA discovery

This guide explains how to register a discovery using **Amazon Certificate Manager (ACM) CA** on the Segura™ platform. This configuration allows the system to identify and manage certificates issued by AWS.

## **Access path**

1. In the left sidebar menu, click **Management**.
2. Select the **Discovery** option.
3. On the main screen, click **Add** and choose **Amazon ACM CA** from the dropdown list.

## **Fill in the discovery settings**

1. In the **Settings** tab, fill in the following fields:
  - **Name**: Enter a descriptive and unique name for the discovery.
  - **Enabled**: Select **Yes** to enable the discovery or **No** to leave it disabled.
2. Click **Continue** to proceed.

## **Configure the Cloud ACM account**

1. In the **Cloud ACM account** tab, define the Amazon account used for certificate management:

If certificates were previously ineligible for renewal, exporting their key will make them eligible. Use this option carefully.
  - **Amazon Certificate Manager Account**: Click **Add** to select an account previously registered in the system.
  - **Import all certificates automatically**: Enable this option if you want the system to automatically import all available certificates.
  - **Export certificate key?**: If you enable this option, Segura™ will export the private key from ACM for each certificate.
2. Click **Continue** to proceed.

## **Configure discovery execution**

1. In the **Execution** tab, define the parameters for automating the process:
  - **Keep scan active after import?**: Defines whether the discovery will continue to run even after the import.
  - **Days allowed for execution**: Select the days of the week on which the discovery can run. Enable *All days* for continuous execution.
  - **Periods allowed for execution**: Configure the time slots for execution (e.g., 08:00 AM – 12:00 PM).
  - **Minimum interval between executions (in hours)**: Define the minimum interval between one execution and the next.
2. Click **Continue** to proceed.

## **Review the discovery configuration**

1. In the **Review** tab, confirm all information entered in the previous steps.
2. After reviewing, click **Save** to register the discovery.
