Any way to get notified when certificates are updated?

I use "Apple Configuration Profiles" on my Apple devices and saw the current certificate expires on June 11 2022, so no panic but less than 6 months. Is there a way to get notified when new certificates are rolled out? Can imagine big companies using NextDNS on many devices also wants a controlled deployment in good time before it expires.

    Bumping this thread... Time flies and in just over a month the Apple Config Profile cert expires. Feels "bad practice" to deploy new clients now so close and have to redo it all in about a month.

    Any info @nextdns team?!

      Jörgen you won’t need to redo it. Once installed, the certificate expiration is no longer checked by the system. Apple does not provide a way to reissue certificats on installed provisioning profiles without the use of an MDM. You don’t need to worry.

      NextDNS , so if I have installed a Apple Configuration Profile, but the certificate is expired here in June, do I then need to come configure a new profile? 😊
