Clone a certificate template

Instead of creating another template from scratch, you can clone a template and modify it as needed.

  1. In DigiCert ONE®, in the Manager menu (top right), select DigiCert​​®​​ IoT Trust Manager.

  2. In the DigiCert​​®​​ IoT Trust Manager menu, select Certificates > Certificate template.

  3. On the Certificate templates page, select Clone certificate template.

  4. On the Clone certificate template page, in the Template name box, modify the name of the cloned template.

    This name is how you identify the template on the Certificate templates page and in the forms where a certificate template is required, such as on the Create a new certificate profile page.

  5. In the Format dropdown, you change the format for the certificates you want to issue from the cloned template.

    • X.509

      Supports RSA and ECDSA certificates.

      X.509 is the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) standard format of public key certificates.

    • Global platform

      Supports ECDSA certificates only.

      These certificates are around 1/10 the size of an x509v3 certificate.

  6. In the Template body box, you can use the same template information or update the JSON formatted certificate template information.

  7. In the Limited accounts dropdown, add or remove the accounts that can use the template.

  8. When ready, select Clone.

The cloned certificate template will now appear on the Certificate templates page and forms where template data is required, such as creating a certificate profile.
