     <Note>
-        An `Issuer` is a namespaced resource, and it is not possible to issue certificates from an `Issuer` in a different namespace.
+        - Currently, the Infisical ACME server only supports the HTTP-01 challenge and requires successful challenge completion before issuing certificates. Support for optional challenges and DNS-01 is planned for a future release.
-        This means you will need to create an `Issuer` in each namespace you wish to obtain `Certificates` in.
+        - An `Issuer` is namespace-scoped. Certificates can only be issued using an `Issuer` that exists in the same namespace as the `Certificate` resource.
-
+        - If you need to issue certificates across multiple namespaces with a single resource, create a `ClusterIssuer` instead. The configuration is identical except `kind: ClusterIssuer` and no `metadata.namespace`.
-        If you want to create a single `Issuer` that can be consumed in multiple namespaces, you should consider creating a `ClusterIssuer` resource. This is almost identical to the `Issuer` resource, however is non-namespaced so it can be used to issue `Certificates` across all namespaces.
+        - More details: https://cert-manager.io/docs/configuration/acme/

-        You can read more about the `Issuer` and `ClusterIssuer` resources [here](https://cert-manager.io/docs/configuration/).

-        Also, currently Infisical ACME server only supports HTTP-01 and requires all the certificate orders passing the challenge before issuing certificates.
-        We will allow users to opt-out challenge in the near future and also provide support DNS-01 as well.
