GET Certificates ID

The GET /Certificates/{id} operation returns details for the certificate with the specified ID. On success, the operation returns HTTP 200 OK with certificate details.

Tip: The following permissions (see Security Roles and Claims) are required to use this feature:

/certificates/collections/read/

/certificates/collections/read/#/

/certificate_stores/read/

/certificate_stores/read/#/

Permissions for certificates can be set at the system-wide or resource-specific level. The appropriate level depends on how the certificates are accessed. See Certificate Collection The certificate search function allows you to query the Keyfactor Command database for certificates from any available source based on any criteria of the certificates and save the results as a collection that will be available in other places in the Management Portal (for example expiration alerts and certain reports). Permissions and Application Permissions for more information.

In permission strings, # represents a specific resource identifier. In /certificates/collections/ permission strings it refers to a certificate collection ID (for example, CollectionId) and in /certificate_stores/ permission strings it refers to a certificate store application ID (for example, containerId).

Table 280: GET Certificates {id} Input Parameters

Name	In	Description
id	Path	Required. An integer indicating the Keyfactor Command reference ID of the certificate. Use the GET Certificates operation to retrieve a list of multiple certificates to determine the desired certificate's ID.
includeLocations	Query	A Boolean that sets whether to include the Locations data in the response (True or False). If False is selected, the LocationsCount and Locations fields will still appear in the response, but they will contain no data. The default is False.
includeMetadata	Query	A Boolean that sets whether to include the Metadata data in the response (True or False). If False is selected, the Metadata field will still appear in the response, but it will contain no data. The default is False.
CollectionId	Query	An optional integer that specifies the certificate collection (CollectionId) to validate whether the user has sufficient permissions to perform the action. If a CollectionId is not provided, the user must have appropriate permissions granted system-wide or via certificate store applications. Providing a CollectionId allows the system to check the user's permissions at the certificate collection level. Permissions are evaluated in the following order: System-wide certificate permissions Granular certificate permissions Use either ContainerId or CollectionId, not both. If both are specified, CollectionId takes precedence, and the ContainerId is ignored (defaults to 0). See Certificate Collection Permissions for more information.
ContainerId	Query	An optional integer that specifies the certificate store application (ContainerId) to validate whether the user has sufficient permissions to perform the action. If a ContainerId is not provided, the user must have appropriate permissions granted system-wide or via certificate collections. Providing a ContainerId allows the system to check the user's permissions at the application level. Permissions are evaluated in the following order: System-wide certificate store application permissions Granular certificate store application permissions Use either ContainerId or CollectionId, not both. If both are specified, CollectionId takes precedence, and the ContainerId is ignored (defaults to 0). See Application Permissions for more information.

Tip: Certificate Id and Keyfactor Id both refer to the same value—the Keyfactor Command–assigned reference ID for a certificate. You may see either name in different parts of the Management Portal or Keyfactor API because Certificate Id was the original term, and Keyfactor Id is its newer replacement. The updated name helps avoid confusion with a different value—the certificate’s identifier on the issuing CA—which is now called the CA Record ID.

Tip: See the Keyfactor API

An API is a set of functions to allow creation of applications. Keyfactor offers the Keyfactor API, which allows third-party software to integrate with the advanced certificate enrollment and management features of Keyfactor Command. Reference and Utility, which allows you to call API operations and view results. It is primarily intended for validation, testing, and workflow

A workflow is a series of steps necessary to complete a process. In Keyfactor Command, it refers to the workflow builder, which allows you to automate event-driven tasks such as when a certificate is requested, revoked or found in a certificate store. development, and also serves as an interactive supplement to this API documentation. You can access it from the help menu (
