To begin, you must have the AnyGateway Service installed and operational before attempting to configure the GoDaddy AnyGateway plugin.
A production GoDaddy account must be set up that will be associated with the gateway and an API Key/Secret created. For more information on how to create an API Key, follow the instructions here.
For enrollment, make sure you have pre-purchased enough certificates of the type you will be enrolling before attempting to enroll certificates via this gateway. The gateway itself does not purchase certificates and requires that the product (certificate) be pre-purchased for the gateway to enroll it successfully. The certificate may be purchased using any payment method including but not limited to GoDaddy's Good as Gold or in store credits, but just having these funds available is not enough. The product MUST actually be pre-purchased using an available payment method.
There are four CA certificate chains that are supported by GoDaddy that can be used in the GoDaddy AnyGateway. For each of these CA chains that are to be supported by the local installation of the GoDaddy AnyGateway, the root and intermediate certificates must be installed in the Intermediate Certification Authorities store on the AnyGateway server and the root certificate must be installed in the Trusted Root Certification Authorities store on the AnyGateway server.
- GoDaddy SHA-1 (GODADDY_SHA_1)
- GoDaddy SHA256 (GODADDY_SHA_2)
- Starfield SHA-1 (STARFIELD_SHA_1)
- Starfield SHA256 (STARFIELD_SHA_2)
For each GoDaddy product being supported, you must create a Certificate Template on the Keyfactor Command server. Make note of the template name of each, as it will be referenced in a future step.
Once the AnyGateway configuration has been imported, the GoDaddy AnyGateway binaries need to be placed in the Keyfactor AnyGateway Service install directory (C:\Program Files\Keyfactor\Keyfactor AnyGateway for default installations). The following binaries need to be placed in the install directory: GoDaddyCAProxy.dll RestSharp.dll
Edit the CAProxyServer.exe.config file in the Keyfactor Gateway installation folder. Modify the "unity" section "<alias alias=CAConnector" line to read: <alias alias="CAConnector" type="Keyfactor.AnyGateway.GoDaddy.GoDaddyCAProxy, GoDaddyCAProxy"/>
Once this is done, restart the Keyfactor AnyGateway service.
After installing the Keyfactor AnyGateway service (see Prerequisites), there should be a AnyGatewayConfig.json file located in your root c:\ folder. Edit it as follows:
