Question
How to use a command-line utility to manage certificates in Plesk?
Answer
The certificate utility allows managing client certificates through CLI. This utility allows performing the following tasks:
Creating:
# plesk bin certificate --create "Site Certificate" -domain example.com -key-file /usr/local/keyfile.key -cert-file /usr/local/cert/certfile.cert
Note: Where keyfile.key is the private key and certfile.cert is the file of the certificate.
Removing:
# plesk bin certificate --remove "Site Certificate" -domain example.com
Assigning to the IP address 192.0.2.78:
# plesk bin certificate --assign-cert "Site Certificate" -admin example.com -ip 192.0.2.78
For instance, renaming of a certificate:
# plesk bin certificate --update "Site Certificate" -domain example.com -new-name "New Certificate"
To see all available parameters, run the following:
# plesk bin certificate --help
Additional information about the utility is available in the documentation.
Note: On Linux systems, SSL certificates for Plesk are located in /usr/local/psa/var/certificates/

The title is misleading, as it says "How to install SSL certificate", not: "how to list certificates for admin". Also, sending people looking for information on integration through CLI, to the web interface, is plain laziness but not the good one that get things done more effectively, but more the type of: "I just wrote a shit, not that anybody cares".
