Overview
The CertForge Dashboard is the first screen you see after logging in. It consolidates your entire certificate estate into a single view: KPI cards for the metrics that matter, an action items panel for things that need attention, and tables showing pending approvals and recent activity.Certificate Estate KPIs
The Certificate Estate section shows five cards:
Each card links to the relevant filtered view. The Expiring card turns amber and the Ungoverned card turns amber when their values are non-zero.
How “CertForge Managed” is counted
This count deduplications by domain name, matching how the All Certificates page counts active certs. A single cert covering two SANs (e.g.voice1.example.com and voice2.example.com) counts as two managed domains. If two certs cover the same domain, only the later-issued one counts. Expired and client-auth certs are excluded.
Action Items
The Action Required panel appears when any of the following are non-zero:- Pending approvals — certificate requests waiting for a human reviewer
- Pending issuance — approved requests waiting for ACME issuance to complete
- Unacknowledged alerts — firing alert rules not yet acknowledged
- Policy violations today — certificate requests rejected for policy reasons since midnight
Service Health Table
If you have Services configured, a Service Health table replaces the Trust Profile Coverage table. It shows each service, its primary hostname, current cert status, and owners — with a Request Cert button for services with no valid cert. If no services are configured, the Trust Profile Coverage table shows each DTP, its cert count, expiring count, and last-issued date.Pending Approvals Table
Shows all open approval requests you can act on. For each request you can:- Enter an optional decision note
- Select a pre-configured approval reason (if the DTP requires one)
- Approve or Reject directly from the dashboard without navigating to the Approvals page
