General workflow for DevOpsACCELERATE developers¶

You can use the DevOpsACCELERATE API to perform routine tasks for managing certificates. When you register for an account, the default system configuration will allow you to obtain test certificates that are issued from a non-publicly trusted Certification Authority. You can use the default system configuration and the REST API to learn how to use DevOpsACCELERATE. When you are ready, follow this basic workflow to manage your own certificates.

• Confirm the zone you want to use. For example, you can confirm that the Default, Internet or your own custom zones are present.
• Request certificates. If you are requesting test certificates, the default system configuration restricts the domains that may be requested for test certificates.
• Check the status of a certificate.
• Download the certificate as a Base64 PEM encoded certificate or as a binary DER file.

• Confirm which Issuing Templates apply to a zone.

• Search for information about certificates.
