Call CreateCertificateRequest to apply for and issue a DV certificate - Certificate Management Service

Purchases, applies for, and issues a domain validated (DV) certificate by using extended certificate services.

Operation description

You can call this operation to apply for only DV certificates. If you want to apply for an organization validated (OV) or extended validation (EV) certificate, we recommend that you call the CreateCertificateForPackageRequest operation. This operation allows you to apply for certificates of all specifications and specify the method to generate a certificate signing request (CSR) file.
Before you call this operation, make sure that you have purchased a certificate resource plan of the required specifications. For more information about how to purchase a certificate resource plan, see Purchase a certificate resource plan. You can call the DescribePackageState operation to query the usage of a certificate resource plan of specified specifications, including the total number of certificate resource plans that you purchase, the number of certificate applications that you submit, and the number of certificates that are issued.
When you call this operation, you can use the ProductCode parameter to specify the specifications of the certificate.
After you call this operation to submit a certificate application, Certificate Management Service automatically creates a CSR file for your application and consumes the certificate quota in the certificate resource plans of the specified specifications that you purchased. After you call this operation, you also need to call the DescribeCertificateState operation to obtain the information that is required to complete domain name verification, and manually complete the verification. If you use the DNS verification method, you must complete the verification on the management platform of the domain name. If you use the file verification method, you must complete the verification on your DNS server. Then, the certificate authority (CA) will review your certificate application.
