Manage Certificates

Certificates are used by applicant organizations to use the system-to-system web services to connect with Grants.gov. These unique certificates are treated as users with contact information and roles.

How to View Certificates and Manage Roles

  1. Select the Manage Certificates link in the left-navigation menu. Only users with the Expanded AOR role will be able to access the Manage Certificates link.

    • Informative status

      • Note:  If you do not see the Manage Certificates link in the left-navigation menu, then your organization does not use web services or you do not have the roles or access to manage these certificate's roles.

  2. Review the Certificates table.

  3. Select the Manage Roles link under the Actions column for the certificate whose roles you wish to view or change. The Manage Roles for Applicants pop-up window will open.

  4. Under the Certificate Role section, select the appropriate role. To learn more information about each role and its associated privilege(s), click the Details link.

  5. To save your changes, click the Save button. To undo your changes, click Cancel button.
