Submit Certificate Signing Request

Before we can issue a certificate, you will need to generate a Certificate Signing Request (CSR).

What is a Certificate Signing Request (CSR)?

Certificate signing request (also CSR or certification request) is a message sent from an applicant to a certificate authority in order to apply for a digital identity certificate.

It contains information that will be included in your certificate such as:
- Organization name
- Common name (domain name)
- Location
- Country

Here is an example of CSR generation:
