Signing Requests

The Signing Request section is the primary interface for managing and enforcing human approval workflows for code signing operations. This ensures that no code is signed without explicit, multi-factor authenticated permission from an authorized party, significantly enhancing security and compliance.

The main page displays a table listing all historical and active signing requests. You can use the filters at the top to refine the view by Certificate, Environment, or Approval Status.

Signing Requests Section

Each signing request stays active for 100 seconds after it is submitted. If nobody approves it in that time, it times out and the signing job fails. An MFA validation stays valid for 15 minutes. For how these timers affect CI/CD pipelines, see Designing Signing Policies.
