One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions 7.0.4 LTS

To create a new certificate, you have to POST the certificate and its private key as a JSON object to the https://<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/x509 endpoint. For details, see Create a new object. The body of the POST request must contain a JSON object with the parameters listed in Element . The response to a successful POST message is a JSON object that includes the reference ID of the created certificate in its key attribute. You can reference this ID in other parts of the configuration. Note that you can use a certificate object for only one purpose, that is, you cannot reference one object twice.

URL

POST https://<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/configuration/x509

Note that the GET method is not permitted on this endpoint, you cannot list the existing certificates. However, if you know the reference ID of a certificate, you can display its properties:
```
GET https://<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/configuration/x509/<reference-ID-of-the-private-key;>
```
You cannot directly delete or modify a certificate, the DELETE and PUT methods are not permitted on certificate objects. To update a certificate, create a new one, then update the object that uses the old certificate to reference the new certificate.

Table 7: Headers
Header name	Description	Required	Values
Content-Type	Specifies the type of the data sent. SPS uses the JSON format	Required	application/json
session_id	Contains the authentication token of the user	Required	The value of the session ID cookie received from the REST server in the authentication response, for example, a1f71d030e657634730b9e887cb59a5e56162860. For details on authentication, see Authenticate to the SPS REST API.

Sample request

The following command creates a new certificate object. Note the following requirements:

The key must be in PKCS-1 PEM format.

You need the certificate and the private key as well.

After you commit the transaction, SPS will automatically delete the old certificate.

Local services: enabling SSH access to the SPS host

Exclusively for troubleshooting purposes, you can access the SPS host using SSH. Completing the Welcome Wizard automatically disables SSH access to SPS. Re-enabling it allows you to connect remotely to the SPS host and login using the root user. The password of the root user is the one you provided in the Welcome Wizard.

Caution:

Accessing the One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) host directly using SSH is not recommended or supported, except for troubleshooting purposes. In such case, the One Identity Support Team will give you exact instructions on what to do to solve the problem.

For security reasons, disable SSH access to SPS when it is not needed. For details, see "Enabling SSH access to the One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) host" in the Administration Guide.

The following encryption algorithms are configured on the local SSH service of SPS:

Key exchange (KEX) algorithms:
```
diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256
```
Ciphers:
```
aes256-ctr,aes128-ctr
```
Message authentication codes:
```
hmac-sha2-512,hmac-sha2-256
```
