Details
⛔⛔ **This is the call that charges.** It is a separate endpoint from the one that creates the order precisely so a client cannot buy while a form is half filled in. ⛔⛔ **The CSR is required and is checked three times** — here, in the service and in the driver. That is not belt-and-braces: the authority accepts an order **without** one, charges for it, and issues nothing. Two such orders were created against our own account on 2026-08-29 by a probe reading validation errors, and the giveaway is how unlike a purchase they look — no common name, no issue date (`docs/272` §9). ⭐ A customer-generated CSR is the better path and the one to encourage: the private key then never leaves their machine. Answers `503` when the authority could not be reached — in which case the order is recorded and reconciled rather than lost. Requires `billing.payment.manage`.
Parameters
| Naam | Type | Verplicht | Wat dit is |
|---|---|---|---|
orderId (path) | Uuid | Ja | The order's id, as `listCertificateOrders` reports it. Ours (UUIDv7). |
Aanvraaglichaam
| Naam | Type | Verplicht | Wat dit is |
|---|---|---|---|
csr_pem | string | Ja | The certificate signing request, PEM. ⛔ Required. Without it the authority has nothing to sign and the order is billed and permanently unusable. |
Reactie

|---|---|---|---|
id | Uuid | Ja | UUIDv7 identifier — sortable by creation time (docs/02 §8). |
product_code | string | Ja | The stable machine key (`positive_ssl`). ⛔ Match on this, never on `product_name` — the name is the certificate authority's marketing string and can be corrected without the pro… |
product_name | string | Ja | What the customer reads — the authority's own product name (`PositiveSSL`, `S/MIME Personal`, `Unified Communications Certificate (UCC)`). ⛔ Never a translation key: these are t… |
state | string<pending, awaiting_validation, issued, cancelled, failed, expired> | Ja | ⛔⛔ **`awaiting_validation` means PAID AND NOT ISSUED.** The authority charges at order time and then waits for the customer to prove they control the domain. It is deliberately… |
common_name | string | Ja | The primary domain on the certificate. |
domains | string[] | Ja | Additional names (SANs). Empty for a single-domain product. |
period_years | integer | Ja | — |
price_minor | integer | Ja | What the customer is charged, frozen at order. A copy rather than a join, so an operator repricing the catalogue cannot move an existing bill. |
currency | string | Ja | — |
validation_instructions | string | Ja | What the customer must still do, in the authority's own words. ⭐ Carried as text rather than parsed: every authority words it differently, and a half-parsed instruction is worse… |
certificate_pem | string | Ja | The issued certificate. ⭐ Public by nature — it is served to every visitor of the site — which is why it is returned here while its **private key never is**: a customer-generate… |
chain_pem | string | Ja | — |
message | string | Ja | Why it failed or was cancelled, in a sentence the customer reads. |
ordered_at | string | Ja | — |
issued_at | string | Ja | — |
expires_at | string | Ja | — |
days_until_expiry | integer | Ja | Whole days until `expires_at`, negative once it has lapsed. ⛔ `null` and `0` are DIFFERENT answers and a client must not collapse them: `null` means we could not read an expiry… |
renewable | boolean | Ja | Whether to offer a re-order now — issued, inside the 30-day window, and with no renewal already in flight. ⛔ Computed here rather than left to a client to derive from `expires_a… |
free_alternative_exists | boolean | Ja | Whether Let's Encrypt issues this kind of certificate for nothing. Carried onto the renewal prompt for the same reason it is on the buy screen: say so **before** asking somebody… |
renewal_of | Uuid | Ja | The order this one renews, so a client can show the chain. |
last_reminded_at | string | Ja | When the renewal sweep last REACHED this order — which is not the same as when it last emailed about it. ⛔ The sweep stamps this for every row it reaches **including the ones it… |
