# How to generate random certificates

This document provides information on how to generate random certificates. The **Certificate Manager** provides the convenience of creating multiple CSR (Certificate Signing Requests) with random common names (CNs) and then signing them all at once. The ability to generate certificates with random CNs is especially valuable in microservices and elastic environments, as it simplifies certificate lifecycle management.

## Create a request

To create a request, see [How to create a request](/v4-2/docs/certificates-flow-how-to-requisitions).

## Sign the request

To sign a request, see [How to sign a request](/v4-2/docs/certificates-flow-how-to-sign-request).

After you sign the request, the system will process and sign the certificates. The processing time may vary depending on the number of random certificates requested.

## Find signed random certificates

To find signed random certificates, there are two ways:

1. On Segura™, in the navigation bar, hover over the **Products menu** and select **Certificate Manager**.
2. In the side menu, select **Requests > SSL/TLS**.
3. Click on the number indicating the quantity of certificates in the **Random certificates** column.
4. All requests will be listed individually.
5. In the **Status** column, you’ll see requests changing from **Generated** to **Signed**.
6. In the **Action** column, click the **View certificate** button to view the random certificate generated from the CN.
