Add the ability to "Reset" a certificate.

[ferneaux]

I've been unable to locate a cmdlet or switch that let's me reset the status/stage of a certificate. For example, if there is a problem renewing or deploying a cert, you can't renew it until the status is reset/cleared.

Is it possible to have a cmdlet like "Reset-TppCertificateStatus" that uses the cert DN path or can be used as part of a pipeline?

That would save a lot of clicking through the web ui.

Thanks!

I believe this is what you're looking for?

That looks like it'll do the trick... thanks!

I just plug in the needed API calls into the "Invoke-VenafiRestMethod" cmdlet and that should be the end of that, correct? (well, in theory anyways)

[gdbarron]

Invoke-VenafiRestMethod -Method Post -UriLeaf 'Certificates/Reset' -VenafiSession $VenafiSession -Body @{'CertificateDN'='\ved\policy\mycert.com'} should get it done.

If you think this will be useful going forward I'm happy to add it to the module. If you could add this as an enhancement issue that would be great!

Worked like a charm! Thank you!

@ferneaux check out Invoke-VenafiCertificateAction released in v3.4. All the standard actions are there including reset.
