  • The owner
    • This is the user who owns the certificate
  • The team
    • The certificate will be associated with this team. This may mean that other team members may be able to view and manage this certificate (if configured in the Settings)
  • Extra information
    • Any extra information that a user wishes to assign to the certificate
  • Additional emails
    • Email addresses, in addition to the owners, whom will also be sent reminder emails
  • Expiry Monitoring
    • Whether to prevent emails being sent when this certificate nears expiry (if configured)
  • Deletion
    • If the certificate is no longer required or created in error it may be deleted
    • Note that this will not revoke the certificate! It will only remove it from the local store. If CRL or OCSP is in use, revoke the certificate BEFORE deleting
