Renew a DigiCert Certificate from an EST-enabled profile

See more Certificates Examples

Demonstrates how to renew a certificate from an EST-enabled profile in DigiCert​​®​​ Trust Lifecycle Manager. (The certificate must be within the renewal window configured in the certificate profile. The CSR must have same Subject DN values as the original certificate.)
