Automated Entrust Certificate Renewal Handoff
Every Monday, WebRun opens Entrust, checks certificates and identity credentials approaching their expiry date, creates a Trello card assigned to the owner for renewal, and posts a handoff note to Microsoft Teams so nothing lapses without someone owning it.
How do I make sure expiring Entrust certificates get handed off to someone before they lapse?
WebRun checks Entrust every Monday for certificates and identity credentials nearing expiry, creates a Trello card assigned to the owner for renewal, and posts a handoff note to Microsoft Teams listing what's due soonest first. It never renews a certificate or handles a private key itself, only tracks and hands off.
- Expiring certificates get an owner and a Trello card, not just a console warning
- Handoffs prioritize the soonest deadlines automatically
- No private key or credential secret is ever read by WebRun

Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it renew the certificate or credential itself?
No. WebRun only tracks expiry and hands off the task. Renewing a certificate or reissuing a credential is always a manual step taken in Entrust.
Does it handle any private key or credential secret?
No. WebRun never reads or handles a private key or credential secret. It only reads the expiry date and owner shown in Entrust.
What if the renewal card is never actioned?
It stays open and keeps moving up the Trello board as the deadline gets closer, so it doesn't quietly disappear.
