.. note:: Let's Encrypt CA issues short-lived certificates (90
days). Make sure you renew the certificates at least once in 3
months.
In order to renew certificates simply call the ``letsencrypt`` (or
letsencrypt-auto_) again, and use the same values when prompted. You
can automate it slightly by passing necessary flags on the CLI (see
`--help all`), or even further using the :ref:`config-file`. The
``--renew-by-default`` flag may be helpful for automating renewal. If
you're sure that UI doesn't prompt for any details you can add the
command to ``crontab`` (make it less than every 90 days to avoid
problems, say every month).

flag may be helpful for automating renewal; it causes the expiration time
of the certificate(s) to be ignored when considering renewal. If you're

Please note that the CA will send notification emails to the address
you provide if you do not renew certificates that are about to expire.
