Request parameters

Name	Req/Opt	Type	Description
certificate	required	object	Certificate details.
.. signature_hash	required	string	Hash algorithm used for signing the certificate. EU Qualified certificates support only SHA-256 hash algorithm.
.. profile_option	required	string	If you are using custom certificate profiles, specify the profile name (for example, nonrepudiation). PKIo certificates support only nonrepudiation profile option.
.. is_rsassa_pss	optional	boolean	If `true`, DigiCert issues the end-entity certificate with an RSASSA-PSS signature. If `false` (default), DigiCert issues the end-entity certificate with an RSA signature. Important: This parameter is only honored when the issuing ICA certificate has an RSA key. If the issuing ICA certificate has an ECC key, DigiCert issues the end-entity certificate with an ECC signature that has same key size as the issuing ICA certificate.
.. individual	required	object	Information about the individual who is the intended certificate holder. This object requires either the `id` or the full set of identifying information (for example, first_name, last_name, email, telephone, country, and zip).
.. .. id	conditional	integer	Unique identifier for the individual. Note: Use this parameter only if you are ordering the certificate for an existing individual with a professional title, whose details are already stored in the CertCentral database. If you areadding a new individual, omit this parameter and provide the full details instead.
.. .. first_name	conditional	string	Individual’s first name (given name). This can include middle names or initials, but do not include titles or prefixes such as “Dr.”.

Currently, only Qualified signature/seal creation device (QSCD) key provisioning method is supported. This method provides a qualified certificate that can create qualified electronic signatures or seals. If you select the `qscd` provisioning method in the request body, DigiCert ships the QSCD hardware token to you. You must include shipping details in the `ship_info` object to receive the QSCD. After receiving the device and the PIN, you must use the DigiCert Trust Assistant to initialize and install your certificate on the token. To do so, use the certificate’s order details page on the CertCentral Europe platform user interface to download and install the DigiCert Trust Assistant. You can use the DigiCert Trust Assistant to unlock and install the certificate on your QSCD token.
