Step 4 - Configuring SPOC Profile

The SPOC Profiles sub-module displays all SPOC profiles configured within the ADSS SPOC Service. A SPOC profile defines the operational settings used when processing SPOC requests, including the selection of the appropriate CVCA and the request processing mode.

Using SPOC profiles, administrators can specify which CVCA should be used for certificate requests and determine whether requests are processed automatically or require manual operator approval.

To create, view, or edit a SPOC profile, click SPOC Profiles. The following screen is displayed:

To modify an existing SPOC profile, click the vertical ellipsis (⋮) at the end of the corresponding row and select Edit.

To create a new SPOC profile, click the + (Add) icon. The Profile Identification screen is displayed.
