Allow wildcard in CN with SANs |
In 5.6 rel; 1/2017 ?
(some software needs to see a wildcard in the CN of a wildcard cert, not as a SAN) | Comodo will document their known workaround for EZProxy, but is still investigating the feasibility of adding this feature. | TBD |
Bulk certificate management (both API and CCM) |
| Comodo is discussing only bulk DCV at this time. No other bulk certificate management capabilities are being discussed or planned for either CCM or the API. | no longer in scope |
Sync DCV expirations per-org |
Done/coming soon?
2017?
Comodo has determined that this is not feasible at this time. | no longer in scope |
High Priority
Item | Status | Target |
Improve custom notifications (addl. fields, events, documentation) |
Verified that this was mis-labeled. It was flagged by the community survey review group as a 'nice to have' and never received additional detail. | insufficient clarity to proceed - no longer in scope. |
Improve authentication options for API |
(passwordless) | DONE, documentation has been updated, need to publicize | Q3, 2017 |
Additional API fields/functions |
:
| Will not be fixed; workarounds provided. Workaround for 'external requester' is to call "updateRequesterExt" after the initial request by injecting the external requestor(s). Workaround for omitting optional components is to create a separate DRAO with the exact field requirements desired. | DONE/Not-In-Scope |
