domain_status=EXPIRED
, in which case a re-validation will be performed.verification_method=dns
, details about the required DNS entry will be specified in the return parameters dns_contents, dns_location, and dns_resource_type.verification_method=web_server
, details about the required file details will be specified in the return parameters file_contents and file_location.verification_method=email
, the email address(es) that the validation email(s) were sent to will be in the return parameter emails. This is purely informational. For domains requested using this module, this will always be a list of size 1.The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.
Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments |
---|---|---|
client_id integer | Default: 1 | The client ID to request the domain be associated with. If no client ID is specified, the domain will be added under the primary client with ID of 1. |
domain_name string / required | The domain name to be verified or reverified. | |
entrust_api_client_cert_key_path path / required | The path to the key for the client certificate used to authenticate to the Entrust Certificate Services (ECS) API. | |
entrust_api_client_cert_path path / required | The path to the client certificate used to authenticate to the Entrust Certificate Services (ECS) API. | |
entrust_api_key string / required | The key (password) for authentication to the Entrust Certificate Services (ECS) API. | |
entrust_api_specification_path path | Default: "https://cloud.entrust.net/EntrustCloud/documentation/cms-api-2.1.0.yaml" | The path to the specification file defining the Entrust Certificate Services (ECS) API configuration. You can use this to keep a local copy of the specification to avoid downloading it every time the module is used. |
entrust_api_user string / required | The username for authentication to the Entrust Certificate Services (ECS) API. | |
verification_email string | Email address to be used to verify domain ownership. Email address must be either an email address present in the WHOIS data for domain_name, or one of the following constructed emails: admin@domain_name, administrator@domain_name, webmaster@domain_name, hostmaster@domain_name, postmaster@domain_name
Note that if domain_name includes subdomains, the top level domain should be used. For example, if requesting validation of example1.ansible.com, or test.example2.ansible.com, and you want to use the "admin" preconstructed name, the email address should be [email protected]. If using the email values from the WHOIS data for the domain or it's top level namespace, they must be exact matches. If verification_method=email but verification_email is not provided, the first email address found in WHOIS data for the domain will be used.To verify domain ownership, domain owner must follow the instructions in the email they receive. Only allowed if verification_method=email
| |
verification_method string / required |
| The verification method to be used to prove control of the domain. If verification_method=email and the value verification_email is specified, that value is used for the email validation. If verification_email is not provided, the first value present in WHOIS data will be used. An email will be sent to the address in verification_email with instructions on how to verify control of the domain.If verification_method=dns , the value dns_contents must be stored in location dns_location, with a DNS record type of verification_dns_record_type. To prove domain ownership, update your DNS records so the text string returned by dns_contents is available at dns_location.If verification_method=web_server , the contents of return value file_contents must be made available on a web server accessible at location file_location.If verification_method=manual , the domain will be validated with a manual process. This is not recommended. |
Note
verification_method=dns
or verification_method=web_server
. Be aware of that if doing many domain validation requests.See also
