Replace 'label' terminology with 'name' per PM feedback
The term 'label' has a specific DNS meaning (string between dots). Using 'name' is clearer and avoids confusion.

:::caution[Universal SSL required for automatic HTTPS records]
4949
Disabling Universal SSL will prevent automatic HTTPS record generation for proxied hostnames, even if you have [Advanced Certificates](/ssl/edge-certificates/advanced-certificate-manager/) or [custom certificates](/ssl/edge-certificates/custom-certificates/) configured. This is because automatic HTTPS record generation is tied specifically to the Universal SSL feature.

If you need HTTPS records without Universal SSL, you can manually add them, but only if **all records on the same label are DNS-only (grey cloud)**. Refer to [SVCB and HTTPS records](/dns/manage-dns-records/reference/dns-record-types/#svcb-and-https) for details and examples.
