   • REST interface:
     Use the Certificate List REST Service to find a certificate. For example, you can send the following HTTP request:

     GET https://localhost:port/SKLM/rest/v1/certificates?attributes=
     state active 
     Content-Type: application/json 
     Accept: application/json 
     Authorization: SKLMAuth userAuthId=37ea1939-1374-4db7-84cd-14e399be2d20 
     Accept-Language: en

     Use the Certificate Update REST Service to update a certificate. For example, you can send the following HTTP request:

     PUT https://localhost:port/SKLM/rest/v1/certificates
     Content-Type: application/json
     Accept: application/json
     Authorization: SKLMAuth authId=139aeh34567m
