'Generating a CA recognised .pfx, to enable a https Azure web app
I have developed an Azure web app. The standard address is:
https://wirdle.azurewebsites.net/
Then, I got a domain from google and linked it:
By default though, it is an unsecured HTTP. I would not be too fussed about this, but being http vs https means some of the features do not work (copying your results to the clipboard, for example). I can go to the https version here:
However, I then get a page before I can enter saying the site is unsecured, which is offputting to the users (and also, the site is unsecured, which is bad!)
I can go on the Google Domain site, then to Security, but I cannot figure out how to secure my domain.
On the Azure side, it seems like I could give my custom domain a certificate, though I do not know how to generate this properly. I am able to generate a .cer, and a .pem using openssl. However, that seems like a dead end since they will be self-signed, and I would assume browsers will may reject that. In the end I need to give Azure a .pfx, that is recognised by CA. How can I do this?
Thanks.
Edit:

You need to buy the SSL certificate from any of the certificate providers.
They will provide you either the pfx certificate or pem, CA certificates with private key
If they provide pem, CA certificates with private key, you can use SSL shopper to convert the certificate to pfx
Then you can upload the pfx certificate and do the SSL binding to your custom domain
