If this operation changes the value of any property for which property-change notifications are due, those notifications are issued asynchronously to this operation.
A 404 (Not Found) status code is returned if the object-id in the URI {partition-id} does not designate an existing Partition object, or the API user does not have object-access permission to it. 404 (Not Found) is also returned if the object-id in the request body certificate-uri does not designate an existing Certificate object, or the API user does not have object-access permission to it.
If the API user does not have task permissions to the Assign Secure Boot Certificates action, 403 (Forbidden) status code is returned. If the partition is busy, or if the certificate is not assigned to the partition, a 409 (Conflict) status code is returned.
