Standard

Why use Ceven?

  1. AI native Digicert integration

    • Describe the outcome and Ceven picks the right Digicert calls, fills the parameters, and checks the result.
    • Structured, agent friendly tool schemas so each call runs reliably instead of by guesswork.
    • Rich coverage for reading, writing, and querying your Digicert data, across all 101 of its actions.

  2. Managed auth

    • Built in OAuth with automatic token refresh and rotation.
    • One place to manage, scope, and revoke Digicert access.
    • Per user and per environment credentials instead of shared keys.

  3. Agent optimized design

    • Actions are tuned from real success and error rates so reliability climbs over time.
    • Full execution logs so you always know what ran in Digicert, when, and on whose behalf.
    • The agent pauses and asks when Digicert is unclear instead of plowing ahead.

  4. Enterprise grade security

    • Fine grained access so you control which agents and people can reach Digicert.
    • Least privilege by default, read scopes first and only the writes a workflow needs.
    • A full audit trail of every Digicert action to support review and sign off.

Supported tools

Every action Ceven's agents can run on Digicert, and when to use it.

Check Permission
Use this when validating that the authenticated user may perform an operation before attempting it.
Create API Key
Use this when you have a valid DigiCert user ID and need to generate a new key for a workflow.
List API Access Roles
Pull a list of available API access roles to determine correct permission levels for a user.
List Intermediate Certificates
Retrieve all intermediate certificates associated with the account to verify the chain of trust.
List CertCentral Users
Pull a list of account users to audit access or manage team members with pagination support.
Update Report
Modify the schedule, recipients, or format of an existing scheduled security report.
Get Certificate Details
Pull full metadata for a specific certificate including expiration date and common name.
Request Certificate
Submit a new request for a TLS or SSL certificate using a provided CSR.
Revoke Certificate
Mark a certificate as invalid. Use this during security breaches or when a private key is compromised.
List Orders
Pull all recent certificate orders to track fulfillment status and payment state.
Search Certificates
Query certificates by common name or organization to find specific assets in a large fleet.
Renew Certificate
Trigger the renewal process for an existing certificate before it expires.

Frequently asked questions

Ceven stores your DigiCert credentials using AES 256 encryption at rest. We never expose the raw API key to the LLM or the end user after the initial setup. When a workflow runs, the agent retrieves the key from our secure vault to sign the request to DigiCert and then immediately clears it from memory. You can rotate these keys at any time through the DigiCert dashboard or by using the Create API Key action within Ceven. If a key is revoked in DigiCert, the workflow will fail with an authentication error and notify the administrator immediately to prevent silent failures in certificate renewal.
Yes. Ceven can monitor your certificates and trigger a renewal request when a specific date threshold is reached. The agent can pull the current certificate details, generate a renewal request, and then notify the server admin to install the new certificate. For more advanced setups, you can link Ceven to your cloud infrastructure to automate the deployment of the renewed certificate to your load balancers. This removes the risk of site outages caused by forgotten expirations. You can set these thresholds per certificate or apply a global policy across your entire DigiCert account for consistency.
DigiCert enforces strict rate limits on their API endpoints to ensure platform stability. If a Ceven workflow attempts to pull thousands of certificates in a tight loop, you may encounter 429 Too Many Requests errors. To handle this, Ceven implements an exponential backoff strategy that pauses the agent and retries the request after a delay. For very large environments, we recommend using the List CertCentral Users action with pagination enabled rather than requesting all data in one call. This ensures your workflows remain stable and do not get temporarily blocked by the DigiCert security gateway.
Ceven can pull a full list of intermediate certificates to help you maintain a healthy chain of trust. This is critical for avoiding browser warnings where the root is trusted but the intermediate is missing from the server configuration. The agent can compare your deployed certificates against the DigiCert intermediate list and alert you if there is a mismatch. This is especially useful during CA migrations or when DigiCert updates their root store. You can build a weekly audit workflow that checks all public facing endpoints for correct chain completion.
Ceven supports multiple connections to DigiCert. You can authenticate different accounts and then use the agent to aggregate data across all of them. For example, a holding company can run a single workflow that lists all expiring certificates across five different subsidiary accounts. The agent tracks which API key belongs to which account and switches context seamlessly. This provides a single pane of glass for identity management without requiring you to merge your accounts into one giant organization within the DigiCert portal.
When a workflow fails due to insufficient permissions, Ceven uses the Check Permission tool to diagnose exactly what is missing. Instead of a generic error, the agent will tell you that the current API key lacks the specific role required for that action, such as the ability to revoke certificates. You can then use the List API Access Roles tool to see which roles are available and update the user permissions in the DigiCert console. This makes troubleshooting much faster for security teams who manage fine grained access control for their PKI infrastructure.
Yes. Using the Update Report action, Ceven can change who receives your security reports and how often they arrive. This is useful for onboarding new security engineers or changing the reporting cadence during a high alert period. You can tell the agent to add a new email address to the weekly audit report or change the format from CSV to PDF. This ensures that the right people always have the latest visibility into your certificate health without having to manually log into the CertCentral portal.
Ceven can pull a complete list of CertCentral users and their associated roles. You can build a monthly audit workflow that compares the current user list against your HR system to identify employees who have left the company but still have API access. The agent can then flag these accounts for removal or automatically trigger a request to a manager to confirm the access is still required. This helps maintain a zero trust architecture by ensuring that identity privileges are regularly reviewed and pruned based on current job functions.
