Ordina DV SSL

POST

https://www.digicert.com/services/v2/order/certificate/{{dv_ssl_certificate_id}}

This page describes products with the dv_ssl_certificate group name (see Glossary – Product identifiers).

Use this endpoint to request or renew a DV SSL certificate. To renew a certificate, you must place the request from the same account used to order the original certificate.

Replace {{dv_ssl_certificate_id}} in the URL with the product identifier for the type of certificate to order:

ssl_dv_geotrust – GeoTrust Standard DV SSL Certificate
ssl_dv_rapidssl – RapidSSL Standard DV SSL Certificate
wildcard_dv_geotrust – GeoTrust Wildcard DV SSL Certificate
wildcard_dv_rapidssl – RapidSSL Wildcard DV SSL Certificate
cloud_dv_geotrust – GeoTrust Cloud DV

In addition to these products, DigiCert offers flexible certificates that support any type of domain configuration. You can order a flexible DV certificate with the Order GeoTrust DV SSL endpoint. To activate this certificate type for your CertCentral account, contact your account manager or our Support team. For more information, see Flex certificates.

You can only order certificates that are enabled for your account. Use the Product list endpoint to get the list of products available for your account.

Request parameters

For information about allowed values for certificate fields, see Publicly Trusted Certificates – Data Entries that Violate Industry Standards.

Name	Req/Opt	Type	Description
certificate	required	object	Certificate details.
.. common_name	required	string	Domain to be secured.
.. dns_names	optional	array	Additional domains to be secured. Can result in additional costs. (See Best practices – Get both versions of a domain for free.)
.. csr	required^*	string	Certificate signing request (CSR). Note: The Services API does not extract information from the CSR to fill in the details of a certificate request. You must provide values for all relevant request parameters, including `certificate.common_name`, `certificate.dns_names`, `certificate.organization_units`, and `organization.id`. If you are requesting a certificate for an organization without an existing ID, you must provide values for all required parameters of the `organization` object.
.. organization_units	optional	array	Department in your organization the certificate is for.
.. server_platform	optional	object	Server platform type. Default: `-1` (other)
.. .. id	required	int	Server platform ID. See Glossary – Server platforms
renewed_thumbprint	optional*	string	If order is a renewal, enter the SHA-1 thumbprint of the previous order's primary certificate. For more information, see How to check a certificate's thumbprint. *Renewal orders must include either a `renewed_thumbprint` or `renewal_of_order_id` value.
validity_years	required	int	Number of years the certificate is valid. Can be replaced by `validity_days` or `custom_expiration_date`. Allowed values: `1`, `2`
validity_days	optional	int	Number of days the certificate is valid after it is issued. Overrides `validity_years`
custom_expiration_date	optional	string	Custom expiration date for the certificate. Date must be less than 825 days in the future. Overrides `validity_days` and `validity_years` Format: `yyyy-MM-dd`
comments	optional	string	Comments about the order for the approver.
apply_cr_discount	optional	bool	When `true`, applies any competitive replacement discounts that are available for the domains on the order. To calculate competitive replacement discounts before you place an order, use the List replacement benefits endpoint. Default: `false`
serial_number	optional	string	Serial number of the non-DigiCert certificate for which you expect to receive a competitive replacement discount when you place the order. If not provided, we use the information from your order request to look for a match among certificates on the CT log servers, and we apply a discount based on the best match we can find.
auto_renew	optional	int	Specify if the certificate should automatically renew. Default: `0` Allowed values: `0` (disabled), `1` (enabled)
custom_renewal_message	optional	string	Custom message to be included in renewal notifications.
disable_renewal_notifications	optional	bool	Specify if renewal notification emails should be disabled. Default: `false`
additional_emails	optional	array	Additional email addresses to receive certificate notification emails (e.g., certificate issuance, duplicate certificate, certificate renewals, etc.).
renewal_of_order_id	optional*	int	If order is a renewal, enter the previous order's ID. *Renewal orders must include either a `renewed_thumbprint` or `renewal_of_order_id` value.
payment_method	optional	string	Specify the payment method to use. Allowed values: `balance`, `card`, `profile` Default: `balance`
dcv_method	required	string	DCV method to use when verifying domain control. See Glossary – DCV methods
dcv_emails	optional	array	List specifying the email scope when sending DCV emails. You can add an entry for each DNS name being secured by the certificate.
.. dns_name	required	string	DNS name on the certificate that this scope should apply to.
.. email_domain	required	string	WHOIS domain record to use to verify email addresses. This value must match the `dns_names` base domain.
.. email	optional	string	Email address to use when sending DCV emails. This email address must appear on the WHOIS record for the domain specified in the `email_domain` parameter.
locale	optional	string	Language that the DCV email should use. See Glossary – Locale codes
skip_approval	optional	bool	Specify if the order should skip the approval step and be immediately submitted for validation and issued when complete. Default: `false`
disable_ct	optional	bool	Specify if CT logging for the certificate should be disabled. Order-specific CT logging must be enabled or this will be ignored. See Allow Users to Keep Certificates Out of CT Logs. Default: `false`
container	optional	object	If needed, specify the container the order should be placed under.
.. id	required	int	Container ID.
custom_fields	optional*	array	Account-specific custom fields. *Whether or not these fields are required depends on your custom field settings.
.. metadata_id	required	int	Custom field ID.
.. value	required	string	Value for the custom field. Data validation type depends on your custom field settings.
technical_contact	optional	object	Technical contact details.
