Base URL

Admin API is exposed on two different hosts.
The host determines both the base URL and the authentication method to use. The preferred host is https://admin.{instance}.sectigo.com/. Apart from using a different base URL, the endpoint paths (for example /api/ssl/v2) remain the same.

Admin API hosts

Host / base URL	Authentication
`https://admin.{instance}.sectigo.com/`	OAuth 2.0 authentication (preferred).
`https://cert-manager.com/`	Header-based authentication

Note:
All endpoint pages in this API reference use base URL https://admin.{instance}.sectigo.com/ and require OAuth 2.0 authentication. For more details of using OAuth 2.0, see Create access token page.
