POST https://www.certcentral.digicert.eu/services/v2/order/certificate/pkio_qualified_organisation_services

Use this endpoint to order a PKIo Qualified Electronic Seal certificate. This certificate is issued to a Dutch organisation for e-signing, enabling them to sign contracts, legal documents, and official communications with a qualified electronic signature.

Public Key Infrastructure for Organizations (PKIo) certificates are part of the PKIoverheid framework (a public key infrastructure managed by the Dutch government). PKIo certificates are primarily used in Netherlands and Belgium.

Example requests and responses

Request parameters

Name

Req/Opt

Type

Description

certificate

required

object

Certificate details.

.. signature_hash

required

string

Hash algorithm used for signing the certificate.

EU Qualified certificates support only SHA-256 hash algorithm.

.. profile_option

required

string

If you are using custom certificate profiles, specify the profile name (for example, nonrepudiation).

PKIo certificates support only nonrepudiation profile option.

.. is_rsassa_pss

optional

boolean

For certificate requests with an RSA CSR or public key, this parameter changes the type of RSA signature DigiCert uses for the end-entity certificate. If true, DigiCert issues the end-entity certificate with an RSASSA-PSS signature. If false (default), DigiCert issues the end-entity certificate with an RSA signature.

Important: This parameter is only honored when the issuing ICA certificate has an RSA key. If the issuing ICA certificate has an ECC key, DigiCert issues the end-entity certificate with an ECC signature that has same key size as the issuing ICA certificate.

csa_agreed_to

required

boolean

Specify if the Certificate Subscriber Agreement (CSA) has been agreed to. Set his parameter to true to indicate agreement and false for disagreement.

Default: true

provisioning_method

required

string

Specify the key provisioning method. Key provisioning method refers to where the private key and the certificate will be stored.

Currently, only Qualified signature/seal creation device (QSCD) key provisioning method is supported. This method provides a qualified certificate that can create qualified electronic signatures or seals. If you select the qscd provisioning method in the request body, DigiCert ships the QSCD hardware token to you. You must include shipping details in the ship_info object to receive the QSCD. After receiving the device and the PIN, you must use the DigiCert Trust Assistant to initialize and install your certificate on the token. To do so, use the certificate's order details page on the CertCentral Europe platform user interface to download and install the DigiCert Trust Assistant. You can use the DigiCert Trust Assistant to unlock and install the certificate on your QSCD token.

ship_info

optional

object

For orders with the provisioning_method of qscd, specify the shipping address for the hardware token.

.. name

required

string

First and last name of the recipient of the order.

organization

required

object

Object with information about the organization to associate with the request. You can associate the request with an existing organization, or you can create a new organization when you submit the order request.

To associate the request with an existing organization, pass the ID of the organization as the value of organization.id in the body of your request. To create a new organization, include the details of the organization in the organization object. For more information about the structure and required parameters of the organization object, see the Create organization documentation.

Note: When you submit an order with organization details instead of providing an organization ID, we check the organizations that already exist in your account to avoid creating a duplicate.

  • If we find one matching organization, we automatically associate the order with that organization instead of creating a new one.

  • If we find two or more matching organizations, we automatically associate the order with the oldest matching organization in your account instead of creating a new one.

To override this behavior and force the request to create a new organization, set the organization.skip_duplicate_org_check parameter to true in the body of your request.

Important: When you want to associate an order with an existing organization, we recommend always using the ID of the organization instead of the organization's details in the body of your request. To get the ID values for organizations in your account, use the List organizations endpoint. Additionally, we recommend deactivating unused organizations to ensure they are never accidentally assigned to a new order request. To deactivate an organization, use the Deactivate organization endpoint.

.. id

required
