# Review and Manage Certificates

The Certificate Manager provides a comprehensive view and control interface for all linked digital certificates. You can review certificate details, update credentials, and manage certificate lifecycle.

## Access and Interface

1. Access the certificate list by selecting **Review Certificate** from the Dashboard.

The main view displays a list of certificates, showing the following critical data points:

- **ID**: The unique certificate identifier
- **Type**: The certificate standard or classification
- **Department**: The assigned organizational unit
- **Expiry**: Days remaining until the certificate expires
- **Status**: Current operational state (e.g., Active, Expired, Disabled)

## Locating Certificates

Users can quickly find specific certificates using the search and filtering capabilities:

* **Search**: Use the search bar to find certificates based on their **ID**, **Type**, or **Certificate Name**.

* **Filters**

    1. **Show disabled only**: Toggles the view to display only certificates currently marked as disabled
    2. **Expiring soon**: Filters the list to show only certificates nearing their expiration date
    3. **Department Filter**: Allows users to narrow the list to certificates associated with a specific configured department

## Management Actions

Click the **More Options menu** (⋮) associated with a certificate to access management actions:

### View Certificate Details

Selecting **View** opens a window displaying static certificate details:

- Certificate ID
- Type
- Certificate Name
- Created At
- Valid To (Expiration date)
- Department

> **Info — NOTE**
>
> User can assign one certificate to more than one department.

### Edit Certificate

Selecting **Edit** allows credential or file updates:

- **Certificate ID**: This value is displayed for reference and cannot be modified.
- **Password/Passkey**: Enter the new password required for future certificate use.
- **Upload New Certificate File (Optional)**: Upload a new PFX file to replace the existing certificate.

> **Info — NOTE**
>
> If a new certificate file is not uploaded, the existing certificate remains active and is updated with the newly provided password.

### Delete Certificate

Selecting **Delete** permanently removes the certificate from the system:

1. A confirmation prompt will appear
2. Select **Delete** to confirm the removal
3. Select **Cancel** to abort the operation and retain the certificate

> **Warning**

> Deleting a certificate is permanent and cannot be undone. Ensure you no longer need the certificate before proceeding.
