Certificate Management Service:DescribeCertificateState

Last Updated:May 10, 2024

Queries the status of a specified certificate application order.

Operation description

If you do not complete the verification of the domain name ownership after you submit a certificate application, you can call this operation to obtain the information that is required to complete the verification. You can complete the verification of the domain name ownership based on the data returned. 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 the DNS server.

The certificate authority (CA) reviews your certificate application only after you complete the verification of the domain name ownership. After the CA approves your certificate application, the CA issues the certificate. If a certificate is issued, you can call this operation to obtain the CA certificate and private key of the certificate.

Debugging

OpenAPI Explorer automatically calculates the signature value. For your convenience, we recommend that you call this operation in OpenAPI Explorer.

Request parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDescriptionExample
OrderIdlongYes

Response parameters

ParameterTypeDescriptionExample
object
Typestring

The status of the certificate application order. Valid values:

  • domain_verify: pending review, which indicates that you have not completed the verification of the domain name ownership after you submit the certificate application.

    Note After you submit a certificate application, you must manually complete the verification of the domain name ownership. The CA reviews the certificate application only after the verification is complete. If you have not completed the verification of the domain name ownership, you can complete the verification based on the data returned by this operation.
  • process: being reviewed, which indicates that the certificate application is being reviewed by the CA.

  • verify_fail: review failed, which indicates that the certificate application failed to be reviewed.

    Note If a certificate application fails to be reviewed, the information that you specified in the certificate application may be incorrect. We recommend that you call the DeleteCertificateRequest operation to delete the certificate application order and resubmit a certificate application. After the order is deleted, the quota that is consumed for the order is released.
  • certificate: issued, which indicates that the certificate is issued.

  • payed: pending application, which indicates that you have not submitted a certificate application.

  • unknow: The status is unknown.
