Proper Syntax for Local Cert Generation

Hi all,

Looking for some help on the proper XML structure for an API call to generate a local certificate. Every which way I try sending queries lands me an 'Illegal request [parameter]' response.

What I've tried lately was the following (with variables provided from a PowerShell function):

<request><certificate><generate><name>$CertificateName<signed-by>$SignedBy<algorithm><certificate-name>$Username<days-till-expiry>$ExpiryDays<digest>$Digest<RSA><rsa-nbits>$RSABits</rsa-nbits></RSA></digest><days-till-expiry><certificate-name></algorithm></name></signed-by></generate></certificate></request>

So ideally, I'd like to include the certificate name, CN, SignedBy, RSA w/20148 bits, sha256 digest, and 1 year expiry.

Any help would be a huge help!
