Importing certificates from a CA using DigiCert

Certificate Manager - SaaS provides the ability to import certificates from DigiCert.

If you are using a VSatellite connection to your DigiCert account, you can import certificates to Certificate Manager - SaaS manually, or automatically on a schedule.

Note

Before you begin, make sure you have created a DigiCert CA.

To manually import a certificate using a CA connected via DigiCert

  1. Sign in to Certificate Manager - SaaS.
  2. Click Integrations > Certificate Authorities.
  3. Locate the certificate authority with the certificates you want to import, then click it to show the details.
  4. Click Import.

The Status field changes to Running. You will need to refresh the page to see when this process finishes.

Imported certificates will be available in the inventory. Use the Imported from filter option to find certificates imported from this certificate authority.

Note

The import also recognizes duplicate certificates, including duplicates requested directly in DigiCert CertCentral. Imported duplicates are linked to their original certificates and aren't marked (old). Certificates that machine discovery found earlier are marked as duplicates after the import.

Note

You can modify other options on the details page of the DigiCert CA. However, be aware that if you change the settings to disable Include Expired Certificates, it will not remove any existing certificates from your inventory. Any new expired certificates would not be imported after you disabled the related setting.
