Create Tunnel Certificate

BetaTunnelCertificate Beta.Tunnels.Certificates.Create(parameters, cancellationToken = default)
POST/v1/tunnels/{tunnel_id}/certificates

The Tunnels API is in research preview. It requires the anthropic-beta: mcp-tunnels-2026-06-22 header and may change without a deprecation period. It supersedes the Admin API endpoints at /v1/organizations/tunnels, which remain available during a migration window.

Registers a public CA certificate on a tunnel. Anthropic verifies the gateway's server certificate against this CA when it terminates the inner TLS session. A tunnel holds at most two non-archived certificates.

Parameters
CertificateCreateParams parameters
required string tunnelID

Path param: Path parameter tunnel_id

required string caCertificatePem

Body param: PEM-encoded X.509 CA certificate. Must contain exactly one certificate and no private-key material. Maximum 8KB.

maxLength8192
IReadOnlyList<AnthropicBeta> betas

Header param: Optional header to specify the beta version(s) you want to use.

string workspaceID

Header param: Optional header to select the Workspace for this request. The value is a Workspace ID (for example, wrkspc_011CZkZaBF1tNoB5wlCeusgy).

Only needed for credentials that can act on more than one Workspace. A credential that belongs to a specific Workspace may omit it; if sent, it must match that Workspace.
