The certbot does not support LightSail's feature of auto-renewal of SSL certificates. On the other hand, you can use the bncert to automatically renew your certificate every 80 days before it expires. For instructions on how to create a certificate using the bncert, please refer to the following document.

The bncert tool will perform an automatic renewal of your certificate every 80 days before it expires.
hi @drumnist_nakano ..... can you just switch modules like that, can you just follow the bncert instructions after having already setup Certbot before? I am in the same boat....setup Certbot and now seeing I don't need wildcard, and it's dumb that it doesn't auto renew...would like to set up bncert so I can set it and forget it...can I just follow those instructions over on top of the Certbot instructions I've already followed?
Hi, can you respond?
I don't recommend using DNS authentication with letsencrypt unless you need wildcard domain support.
If all you need is to support ssl on a fixed number of domains, then just use http authentication. It's well supported by most letsencrypt clients.
I use certbot on all my lightsail linux instances and it's worked fantastically.
