Request and manage certificates with ACME
You can use ACME to enroll a new certificate from CertCentral or to renew, reissue, or duplicate an existing certificate.
Initiate the ACME request on the server where you want to install the certificate. Follow the third-party software provider's guidelines to invoke the local ACME client, using the CertCentral ACME credentials for the type of certificate you want to install.
The ACME client sends the certificate request to CertCentral and, if successful, downloads and installs the resulting certificate for you.
Importante
DigiCert supports any ACMEv2-compliant client and ACME-ready application. Examples in this section illustrate use of the Certbot ACME client to request and install certificates for a web server application on a Linux system.
These examples are for illustrative purposes only. Refer to the ACME client software provider's documentation for an exhaustive list of supported options. For the Certbot client, you can make the command certbot --help or visit the Certbot documentation website.
Aviso
Information here is for the new version of the CertCentral ACME service, released on January 30, 2024. CertCentral ACME credentials created prior to that date do not support DV certificates, dynamic domain control validation, or automatic selection of certificate actions (enroll/renew/reissue/duplicate).
To request certificates using legacy ACME credentials created before January 30, 2024, see: Utilice credenciales heredadas de CertCentral ACME
