Know your environment
You can set up DigiCert® Private CA in two ways:
DigiCert-hosted: Hosted and managed for you by DigiCert. Typically bundled with DigiCert ONE.
Self-hosted: Hosted and managed by you on your premises or in your own cloud. Can be connected to DigiCert ONE for certificate lifecycle management capabilities.

How you sign in to DigiCert Private CA depends on whether your environment is DigiCert-hosted or self-hosted.

Both DigiCert-hosted and self-hosted environments have almost the same features and capabilities.
Some capabilities which are managed by your DigiCert representative might not be present in the DigiCert-hosted environment, for example user management. Some capabilities that work with DigiCert ONE and Trust Lifecycle Manager might not be available in your self-hosted environments, for example accounts management.
Here's a quick look at the menu in DigiCert Private CA.
