create_certificate_provider#

IoT.Client.create_certificate_provider(**kwargs)#

Creates an Amazon Web Services IoT Core certificate provider. You can use Amazon Web Services IoT Core certificate provider to customize how to sign a certificate signing request (CSR) in IoT fleet provisioning. For more information, see Customizing certificate signing using Amazon Web Services IoT Core certificate provider from Amazon Web Services IoT Core Developer Guide.

Requires permission to access the CreateCertificateProvider action.

Warning

After you create a certificate provider, the behavior of CreateCertificateFromCsr API for fleet provisioning will change and all API calls to CreateCertificateFromCsr will invoke the certificate provider to create the certificates. It can take up to a few minutes for this behavior to change after a certificate provider is created.
