Hello,

please let me clarify what I am trying to do. we are looking at automating
certificate signing operations. For this we are using EST endpoints to get
our CSR signed. Of course we want our api calls to be authenticated with
certificates and here I am facing the "Chicken and egg" problem. in order
call EST api I need key and certificate, but to get a certificate I need to
call the api. From this point of view I was thinking about creating the
initial certificate using cli commands (that I know now that they don't
exist)

I would like to know if there is another way to generate the 1st
certificate programmatically. Is there a way to do with openssl and then
get it imported? are there commands for these?

Regards
