Prepare seats and enrollment codes
If you configured your EST-enabled certificate profile to authenticate clients using dynamic enrollment codes (Enrollment Code authentication method with Dynamic enrollment code options), you need to create the seat records in DigiCert® Trust Lifecycle Manager before EST clients can start enrolling certificates.
Each seat record has an assigned enrollment code. To complete the enrollment and claim the seat, the EST client must provide a matching enrollment code.
Hinweis
If your profile is configured to authenticate using client certificates (TLS Certificate Auth authentication method) or Global enrollment code options, skip this step and proceed to Enroll certificates via EST.
Create and enroll seats in bulk
Create a CSV file
Create a CSV file in the following format to use to create seats and assign enrollment codes to them in Trust Lifecycle Manager:
seat_id,seat_name,enrollment_code,enrollment_email
For example:
seat01,seat01,817902767,seat01@example.com
In this example, 817902767 is the enrollment code that the EST client would send in their request to claim the seat and enroll a certificate.
For more examples of how to create the CSV file, see Bulk enroll multiple seats.
Wichtig
If your Trust Lifecycle Manager account uses the legacy licensing model (with different seat types), you must select a Seat type when enrolling seats individually or in bulk. You can only enroll one seat type at a time. To bulk enroll different seat types, prepare one CSV file per type. To learn more, see Legacy seat types.
Upload CSV to create/enroll seats
Upload the CSV file to create the seat records and register the enrollment codes in Trust Lifecycle Manager:
From the Trust Lifecycle Manager menu, go to Account > Seats.
Select the button to Manage seats in bulk.
In the Operation dropdown, select Create/Update seats.
Select the enroll the Seats against a profile checkbox to enable this option.

Select the profile you created from the certificate profiles dropdown.
Upload the CSV file that contains the data for all the seats to enroll.
As soon as you upload a valid CSV file, the system enrolls the corresponding seat records. To see a report of all the enrolled seats and the status of each, select the Download results JSON link.
When you're finished, select the Ok button to return to the main Account > Seats page.
The seat records you created should now be present in the table here.
Select Inventory > Enrollments to check the pending code-based enrollments.

Use the enrollment codes you configured to enroll certificates via EST for devices or servers.
