Product info

GET https://www.digicert.com/services/v2/product/{{name_id}}

Use this endpoint to get information about a product.

CertCentral account administrators can customize some of the properties for each product at the container (or division) and user role level. For customizable properties, the Product info response returns the current product settings based on the user who submits the request and the container identified in the URL query. If there are no customized product settings for any container or user role in your account, the Product info response returns the same values for every user and container ID.

Notice

To see the customized product settings for each container and user role in your account, use the Product limits endpoint.
