Obtain an API token

You can use an API token to authenticate Autoenrollment Server requests to DigiCert ONE. DigiCert recommends that you create a dedicated service user for API access as this helps manage access permissions and track the API requests in your account audit logs.

참고

You need either an API token or an authentication certificate for Autoenrollment Server to be able to authenticate requests to DigiCert ONE. If you will integrate with Windows Hello for Business, choose the authentication certificate method instead.
