This command is to view the details of a profile.

OPTIONS
The CLI options are described in pki(1).
OPERATIONS
To view available profile commands, type pki ca-profile. To view each command's usage,
type pki ca-profile-<command> --help.
All the ca-profile commands require CA agent authentication.
Viewing the profiles
pki <CA agent authentication> ca-profile-find
The results can be paged using the --start and --size options described in pki(1).
To view the contents of a profile:
A set of profile inputs, profile outputs, authenticators, policies and constraints are
defined in a profile. These contents can be viewed using the following command:
pki <CA agent authentication> ca-profile-show <profile ID>
To store the output of the above operation, the output option must be specified.
pki <CA agent authentication> ca-profile-show <profile ID> --output <file path>
This output file can be used for modifying the profile. It can be used as a template for
certificate enrollment as well but, a more suitable template can be fetched using the pki
cert-request-profile-show command. The pki cert-request-profile-show command does not
require an agent/administrator level authentication and contains only the profile inputs
section (which is required for certificate enrollment).
Add/Modify/Delete a profile
pki <CA admin authentication> ca-profile-add <input file path>
The contents of the input file must be in an XML format returned by the ca-profile-show
command. This data will be marshaled by the CLI client to create a new profile in the CA.
The profile must be disabled before it is modified. It must be enabled after modification
to be used for certificate enrollment.
To modify an existing profile:
pki <CA admin authentication> ca-profile-mod <input file path>
The profile data can be retrieved using the ca-profile-show command and after editing the
file, it can be provided to the profile-mod command to modify an existing profile.
To delete a profile in the CA:
pki <CA admin authentication> ca-profile-del <profile ID>
Enabling/Disabling a profile in the CA
To enable a profile in the CA:
pki <CA agent authenticaton> ca-profile-enable <profile ID>
A profile must be enabled before it can be used.
To disable a profile in the CA:
pki <CA agent authentication> ca-profile-disable <profile ID>
A profile must be disabled before it can be modified.
Note: Modifying or deleting a profile requires user(s) that have two roles (admin and
agent). The same user may be in both roles. An agent is needed to first disable the
profile. Once the profile is disabled, it can be modified/deleted by an admin user.
Then, an agent is needed to enable the profile for use by the CA.
