# SSL Configuration Details

client.customCertificates.get(stringcustomCertificateID, CustomCertificateGetParams {zone\_id } params, RequestOptionsoptions?): [CustomCertificate](<https://developers.cloudflare.com/api/typescript/resources/custom_certificates#(resource)%20custom_certificates%20%3E%20(model)%20custom_certificate%20%3E%20(schema)>) {id, zone\_id, bundle\_method, 12 more }

GET/zones/{zone\_id}/custom\_certificates/{custom\_certificate\_id}

Retrieves details for a specific custom SSL certificate, including certificate metadata, bundle method, geographic restrictions, and associated keyless server configuration.

##### Security

<details>

<summary>API Token</summary>



The preferred authorization scheme for interacting with the Cloudflare API. <a href="https://developers.cloudflare.com/fundamentals/api/get-started/create-token/">Create a token</a>.

**Example:**<code>Authorization: Bearer Sn3lZJTBX6kkg7OdcBUAxOO963GEIyGQqnFTOFYY</code>

</details>

<details>

<summary>API Email + API Key</summary>



The previous authorization scheme for interacting with the Cloudflare API, used in conjunction with a Global API key.

**Example:**<code>X-Auth-Email: user@example.com</code>

The previous authorization scheme for interacting with the Cloudflare API. When possible, use API tokens instead of Global API keys.

**Example:**<code>X-Auth-Key: 144c9defac04969c7bfad8efaa8ea194</code>

Specify the region where your private key can be held locally for optimal TLS performance. HTTPS connections to any excluded data center will still be fully encrypted, but will incur some latency while Keyless SSL is used to complete the handshake with the nearest allowed data center. Options allow distribution to only to U.S. data centers, only to E.U. data centers, or only to highest security data centers. Default distribution is to all Cloudflare datacenters, for optimal performance.
