Create a certificate profile

Aviso

Before you create a certificate profile, you need at least one certificate template. See Step 1: Create your certificate templates.

  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 profiles.

  3. On the Certificate profiles page, select Create certificate profile.

  4. On the Create new certificate profile page, do the following:

    1. Enter your certificate profile name

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

    2. Select a certificate template

      In the Template dropdown, select the certificate template for your certificate profile.

  5. After you select the certificate template, update the profile entries as needed.

    • Enabled/required entries

      When an entry is enabled and required, you cannot disable it or make it optional.

    • Some entries require user interaction

      When an entry is enabled/required, you may have to provide a value or select an option before creating the certificate profile.

      For example, in the template, the Common name is required. You have three options. You must check at least one of the options to proceed.

    • Disable entries

      When an entry is disabled, you don't need to include it in your certificate profile.

    • Enable an entry

      When an entry is disabled, you may be able to enable it. After you enable it, leave it as optional or make it required.

      To make the entry required, slide the Required toggle switch. You may also need to provide a value or select an option before creating the certificate profile.

      For example, in the template, you enable the Organization name. You have three options. You must check at least one of the options to proceed.

  6. When done, select Create.

You can now use the certificate profile when creating enrollment profiles for your devices. The certificate profile will appear on the Certificate enrollment profile page.
