Rollback Certificate to Firewall Profile

The rollback certificate to a firewall profile API rolls back the certificate and its private keys to the firewall profile and links them to the server profiles. Refer to the After you are done section to Approve and Implement the request.

Before you begin

Ensure the following before attempting to rollback certificate to a firewall profile through AppViewX:
  • Firewall devices must be configured in AppViewX.
  • The devices should be in Managed state.
  • Approval is not required: Enable this mode by setting the ‘Certificate Requests Need Approval?’ flag to false in the Certificate Policy.
  • Approval is required: If the approval setting in the policy cannot be changed, users can approve specific requests by following the After you are done section.
