Use this endpoint to generate a new random value to use for domain control validation (DCV) for an OV or EV domain.
Replace {{domain_id}} in the request URL with the ID of the domain to validate. You can use the returned token to validate the domain using the DCV method selected when you requested a certificate or created the domain. For more information, see Add domain.
If you don't need to generate a new token, you can use the Domain info endpoint to get the DCV token that already exists for the domain. To submit a domain in your account for validation, use the Submit for validation endpoint.
This endpoint only generates DCV tokens for OV and EV domains. To generate a DCV token for a DV domain, use the DV SSL: Generate DCV token endpoint.
