Datasource Introduction

Datasources are external assets that contain data useful for certificate enrollment or enrollment validation.

Datasources are fetched on enrollment request submission and are used to fill the request dictionary. This dictionary is then available to use in computation rules and validation rules.

To define which datasources to fetch, and with which parameters, a datasource flow is available on all certificate profiles. A Datasource Flow is a collection of datasources to fetch, with inputs from the request.
