Self-service portal
With the self-service portal for DigiCert® Trust Lifecycle Manager, end users can download, manage, or enroll their own certificates from their web browser. Enable the self-service portal so users can help themselves, lessening the burden on admins and support teams.
Certificate types
The following certificate types can be accessed from the self-service portal:
Certificates issued through Trust Lifecycle Manager from a certificate profile with the Enable self-service portal option enabled and an issuing CA in DigiCert® Private CA or CertCentral.
Certificates discovered or imported into Trust Lifecycle Manager from external sources. You can use the self-service portal settings to control whether to expose these certificates to end users.
Portal types
Trust Lifecycle Manager provides two different portal types. You can enable one or both of these in the self-service portal settings:
Open portal: Does not authenticate users and only supports a limited set of self-service actions.
Authenticated portal: Authenticates users via SAML and supports more extensive self-service management actions after verifying the user's identity.
After enabling one of these portal types, the system generates a unique portal URL and QR code to share with end users who need access to it.
