API authentication methods

Partners can authenticate with the APIs using one of the following methods:

  • Login name and password

  • Client Authentication Certificate

Provide the loginName and loginPassword parameters in the request.

Sample request
curl --location --request POST 'https://secure.trust-provider.com/products/!APIendpoint' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
--data-urlencode 'loginName=yourLoginName' \
--data-urlencode 'loginPassword=yourPassword' \

  1. Connect to https://private.trust-provider.com or https://private.sectigo.com using HTTPS.

  2. Provide a valid client certificate during the HTTPS connection.

  3. Include the loginName parameter corresponding to the certificate owner.

    The platform verifies that the account is active and that the authentication certificate is associated with the provided loginName.
