Resolved Installing an SSL via the API requires a CSR, whereas the UI and CLI don't require it

Installing Certificates


This is a huge problem for us when migrating SSL certificates in to Plesk, as we don't store the CSR once the certificate has been issued.

Currently the dirty work around is to establish an SSH connection and use the certificate utility to install the SSL without an CSR, but that really shouldn't be necessary when there's an API.

Should I raise this as a bug in the reports forum? It's more like the specification of this API feature was initially incorrect.

To be in line with the UI and certificate CLI utility, the API certificate/install/csr node should be changed from 'required' to 'optional'.

ahhh it would be nice if the documentation mentioned that the csr node can be a blank string.

Closing as resolved.
