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). For more information, see Certificate profile options.
.. psp_roles	required	array	Payment service provider roles. Allowed values: `psp_as`, `psp_pi`, `psp_ai`, or `psp_ic`. For more information, see Payment service provider roles. This parameter is for indicating existing roles and not for assigning new ones. Your organization must have these roles pre-registered with DigiCert before using the API.
.. is_rsassa_pss	optional	boolean	For certificate requests with an RSA CSR or public key, this parameter changes the type of RSA signature DigiCert uses for the end-entity certificate. 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.
csa_agreed_to	required	boolean	Specify if the Certificate Subscriber Agreement (CSA) has been agreed to. Set his parameter to `true` to indicate agreement and `false` for disagreement. Default: `true`
provisioning_method	required	string	Specify the key provisioning method. Key provisioning method refers to where the private key and the certificate will be stored. The methods are: Qualified signature/seal creation device (QSCD): 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. For more information, go to the EU (eIDAS) products page in the CertCentral platform documentation, select the relevant certificate order link, and view the What's Next subsection. Certificate signing request (CSR): This method results in a qualified certificate that can create advanced electronic signatures or seals. If you select the `csr` provisioning method in the request body, you must submit a CSR using the `csr` request parameter while ordering the certificate.
ship_info	optional	object	For orders with the `provisioning_method` of `qscd`, specify the shipping address for the hardware token.
.. name	required	string	First and last name of the recipient of the order.
.. addr1	required	string	Shipping address for the token.
.. addr2	required	string	Secondary address field.
.. city	required	string	Shipping city.
.. state	required	string	Shipping state.
.. zip	required	string	Shipping postal code.
.. country	required	string	Shipping country.
.. method	required	string	Shipping priority for the token. Allowed values: `STANDARD` or `EXPEDITED` (incurs additional cost).
.. csr	optional	string	Certificate signing request (CSR) or public key in PEM format. Format the CSR/public key as a base64-encoded string without line breaks or escape characters. Include the PEM headers and footers (such as `-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----...` and `...-----END CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----`). For more information about generating a CSR, see Create a CSR. After placing the order, if the status of the order is `pending`, you can use the Update CSR endpoint to update the CSR. To check the status of the order, use the Order validation status endpoint. Note: Required if `provisioning_method` is `csr`.
organization	required	object	Object with information about the organization to associate with the request. You can associate the request with an existing organization, or you can create a new organization when you submit the order request. To associate the request with an existing organization, pass the ID of the organization as the value of `organization.id` in the body of your request. To create a new organization, include the details of the organization in the `organization` object. For more information about the structure and required parameters of the `organization` object, see the Create organization documentation. Note: When you submit an order with organization details instead of providing an organization ID, we check the organizations that already exist in your account to avoid creating a duplicate. If we find one matching organization, we automatically associate the order with that organization instead of creating a new one. If we find two or more matching organizations, we automatically associate the order with the oldest matching organization in your account instead of creating a new one. To override this behavior and force the request to create a new organization, set the `organization.skip_duplicate_org_check` parameter to `true` in the body of your request. Important: When you want to associate an order with an existing organization, we recommend always using the ID of the organization instead of the organization's details in the body of your request. To get the ID values for organizations in your account, use the List organizations endpoint. Additionally, we recommend deactivating unused organizations to ensure they are never accidentally assigned to a new order request. To deactivate an organization, use the Deactivate organization endpoint.
.. id	required	integer	The ID of an existing organization to associate with the order. To get the ID of organizations in your account, use the List organizations endpoint. ^*Not required if you are creating a new organization with your request. For details on how to create a new organization, see Create organization.
.. contacts	required	array	List of contacts for the organization. When creating a new organization: Providing a `verified_contact` is required for EU electronic eSeal PSD2 certificates. You can add multiple verified contacts, with a maximum limit of fifteen. For EU certificates, the verified contact is your organization's Authorized Representative. The authorized representative must be included in the company registry, must represent the organization, and has the authority to approve your EU Qualified eSeal PSD2 order. Providing an `organization_contact` is conditional. An `organization_contact` is required if the request is from a service user. If omitted, the organization is created and the authenticated user is used as the organization contact. Providing a `technical_contact` is optional. If omitted, the organization is created with no technical contact. When using an existing organization ID: Providing an `organization_contact` and `technical_contact` is optional. If provided, the new organization and technical contact replace the existing contacts stored on the organization. Providing a `verified_contact` is optional if the organization has already been submitted for EU electronic eseal certificates. Providing a `verified_contact` is required if the organization has never been submitted for EU electronic eseal certificates. Note: By default, DigiCert creates the order with the organization contact and technical contact (if one exists) assigned to the `organization` on the request. To create the order with a different organization or technical contact than those assigned to the `organization`, include the `organization_contact` or `technical_contact` object at the root of the request payload.
.. ..id	required	integer	Unique ID of the contact within the organization.
.. .. first_name	optional	string	First name of the new contact. Note: Required when omitting `user_id`. If `user_id` is not omitted, the specified user's information will be updated with the new value.
.. .. last_name	optional	string	Last name of the new contact. Note: Required when omitting `user_id`. If `user_id` is not omitted, the specified user's information will be updated with the new value.
.. .. email	optional	string	Email address of the new contact. Note: Required when omitting `user_id`. If `user_id` is not omitted, the specified user's information will be updated with the new value.
.. .. job_title	optional	string	Job title of the new contact. Note: Required when omitting `user_id`. If `user_id` is not omitted, the specified user's information will be updated with the new value.
.. .. telephone	optional	string	Telephone number of the new contact. Note: Required when omitting `user_id`. If `user_id` is not omitted, the specified user's information will be updated with the new value.
.. .. contact_type	required	string	Contact type. Allowed values: `organization_contact`, `technical_contact`, or `verified_contact`. Note: This parameter is required when creating a new authorized representative or when using an existing verified contact as an authorized representative.
.. .. user_id	required^*	integer	ID of existing user or contact for the account. ^*Can be omitted if adding a new contact.
.. .. telephone_extension	optional	string	Telephone extension number of the new contact.
.. order_validity	optional	object	Defines the validity period of certificates issued for this order. Cannot exceed order validity period. If not provided, or if the certificate validity date is less than 365 days from the current date, the certificate's validity period defaults to the validity period of the order or the maximum certificate validity period defined by CA/B Forum baseline requirements, whichever is shorter. This object is not used for requests from accounts that do not have Multi-year Plans enabled.
.. .. years	optional	int	Number of years the certificate is valid after it is issued. Can be replaced with `cert_validity.days` or `cert_validity.custom_expiration_date`. Allowed value: `1`, `2`, or `3`
.. .. days	optional	int	Number of days the certificate is valid after it is issued. Overrides `cert_validity.years`. Max: `397`
.. .. custom_expiration_date	optional	string	A custom expiration date for the certificate. Overrides `cert_validity.days` and `cert_validity.years`. Format: `dd MMM YYYY` (for example, `"09 JUN 2021"`) Range: Must be within 397 days of the date you request the certificate.
