Ensure your SSL CSR contains the required information for the Certificate Authority

Overview

Part of setting up hosted SSL for your host-mapped Help Center is to submit a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) to a Certificate Authority (CA). CSRs need to contain the following information in order to be approved:

• Common Name
• Organization
• City/Locality
• State/County/Region
• Country
• Email
• Address

Procedure

Zendesk will generate the CSR from information you supply within your account. See "Getting your own SSL certificate" in the Changing the address of your Help Center subdomain article for exact details.

In order to ensure the information listed above is present on your CSR, fill out all of the relevant company information, to include the address, prior to generating the CSR. This information can be updated by going to Admin icon () > Settings > Subscription > Update Credit Card, the Address listed in this section is what will appear on the CSR.  The Organization name can be updated by going to Admin icon () > Settings > Account > Branding > Your Zendesk account name. 

If you have a managed account and aren't able to update your credit card, please contact us by sending an email to [e-mail].
