The following script was taken from here
Added unifi-video support. Script uses letsencrypt to get the cert and automatically updates the UniFi and UniFi-Video Keystores.
Would be a good idea to check and make sure the the UniFi-Video cameras reconnect and still work after running script.
Installing Let’s Encrypt
Install Let’s Encrypt with the following
sudo apt install letsencrypt
And generate a cert for your domain with
sudo certbot certonly -d unifi.domain.com
Executing Script to Renew Certificate
Copy the script at the bottom of this post and put it in a file called gen-unifi-cert.sh
Run the script to insert the cert into the UniFi and UniFi-Video services.
sudo ./gen-unifi-cert.sh -e email@domain.com -d unifi.domain.com
You can run it with no or the -h argument to show the options and arguments to use.
./gen-unifi-cert.sh -h
Setup Cron Job
You should be able to add the following to a cronjob to auto renew the certificate. Replace path to script and domain name.
30 2 * * * /root/gen-unifi-cert.sh -r -d unifi.domain.com
UniFi SSL Cert Renew Script
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# Added support to do UniFi and UniFi controllers at the same time using the same cert.
# Original script from https://git.sosdg.org/brielle/lets-encrypt-scripts/raw/branch/master/gen-unifi-cert.sh

# Download URL: https://source.sosdg.org/brielle/lets-encrypt-scripts
# Version: 1.7
# Last Changed: 09/26/2018
# 02/02/2016: Fixed some errors with key export/import, removed lame docker requirements
# 02/27/2016: More verbose progress report
# 03/08/2016: Add renew option, reformat code, command line options
# 03/24/2016: More sanity checking, embedding cert
# 10/23/2017: Apparently don't need the ace.jar parts, so disable them
# 02/04/2018: LE disabled tls-sni-01, so switch to just tls-sni, as certbot 0.22 and later automatically fall back to http/80 for auth
# 05/29/2018: Integrate patch from Donald Webster <fryfrog[at]gmail.com> to cleanup and improve tests
# 09/26/2018: Change from TLS to HTTP authenticator
# Location of LetsEncrypt binary we use. Leave unset if you want to let it find automatically
#LEBINARY="/usr/src/letsencrypt/certbot-auto"
