hi, i have purchased a co.uk domain and when i try to connect it with netlify using external DNS, im unable to get the SSL/TLS certificate. I have set the configuration correct but still im unable to obtain it.
The purchased domain is buteconstruction.co.uk .
Im currently running the site with buteconstruction.netlify.app.
I would like to know what i need to do in order to obtain the certificate for my purchased co.uk domain.
Please assist me to resolve this issue
