Manual certificate enrollment and renewal
Nota
This feature is available from version 1.2.0.
When you sign in to DigiCert Trust Assistant, you can manually enroll and renew certificates through the application window for the assigned certificate profile. This option is available even if the profile is set to auto-enroll and renew.
The key differences between manual and automatic enrollment/renewal are:
User input: Manual enrollment allows you to provide input during the process.
Control over timing: You have full control over when to enroll and renew certificates.
There are two ways to trigger manual enrollment/renewal:
From the Certificate profiles pane use Quick actions for manual enrollment and from the Issued certificates pane use Quick actions for manual renewal.
From Notifications — You will be notified when DigiCert Trust Assistant detects a profile that requires manual enrollment or renewal.
After enrollment is triggered, the Enrollment window appears.
Provide any required information and click Submit to start the enrollment process. If prompted, enter the token PIN.
Post-processing scripts
If the certificate profile is configured with a post-processing script or scripts, it will run after successful certificate issuance or renewal.
If the script fails, the Enrollment window will still display a successful issuance message, noting the post-script failure. You can rerun the failed script from the token pane where the certificate was issued. For more details, refer to Rerun a failed script.
