## Guide to Issuing Certificates
To issue a certificate, you must first create a [certificate profile](/documentation/platform/pki/certificates/profiles) and a [certificate template](/documentation/platform/pki/certificates/templates) to go along with it.
To [issue a certificate](/documentation/platform/pki/concepts/certificate-lifecycle#enrollment-request-%2F-issuance), you must first create a [certificate profile](/documentation/platform/pki/certificates/profiles) and a [certificate template](/documentation/platform/pki/certificates/templates) to go along with it.
The [enrollment method](/documentation/platform/pki/enrollment-methods/overview) configured on the certificate profile determines how a certificate is issued for it.
Refer to the documentation for each enrollment method to learn more about how to issue certificates using it.
- Self-Signed Certificates: To issue a [self-signed certificate](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-signed_certificate), you must configure the certificate profile to use the `Self-Signed` issuer type. You can then use the [API enrollment method](/documentation/platform/pki/enrollment-methods/api) to request a self-signed certificate against it.
- CA-Issued Certificates: To issue a certificate from a certificate authority, you must configure the certificate profile to use the `Certificate Authority` issuer type and select the [issuing CA](/documentation/platform/pki/ca/overview) to use. You can then use one of the [enrollment methods](/documentation/platform/pki/enrollment-methods/overview) to request a certificate against it.
Refer to the documentation for each [enrollment method](/documentation/platform/pki/enrollment-methods/overview) to learn more about how to issue certificates using it.
