Bulk signing
注記
Bulk signing only works with simple signing.
注記
By default, bulk signing is disabled. To enable, contact your DigiCert account manager.
Bulk signing enables you to sign multiple files in a single operation. Instead of processing each file sequentially, where each file is signed one after another, bulk signing allows you to submit a batch of files to be signed simultaneously. If you are dealing with large sets of files, this feature reduces signing time and improves efficiency.
At a high level, bulk signing offers:
Faster processing
Sign large batches of files more quickly than with traditional (sequential) signing.
Simplified workflow
Run a single signing action instead of repeating the process for each file.
Consistent handling
The same signing policy and certificate is applied to all files in the batch.
Error handling
Invalid or unsupported files are automatically skipped, with a status report for each file in the batch.
Bulk signing commands
Use the --simple and --bulk flags in your command:
smctl sign --simple --keypair-alias <keypair alias> --input <path to unsigned files or folder> --bulk
Review the following sample command:
smctl sign --simple --keypair-alias kp3 --input C:\Users\Name\Desktop\folder_or_files_to_sign --bulk
