With 47day certs on the horizon, please add support for ACME challenge type DNS-PERSIST-01. This will greatly enhance automation in lot of environments.
Let’s Encrypt is scheduled to add support for it in Q2 of 2026. More on Let’s Encrypt support. DNS-PERSIST-01: A New Model for DNS-based Challenge Validation - Let's Encrypt
The CA/Browser Forum ballot [SC-088v3] passed support for it in October 2025 (Ballot SC-088v3: DNS TXT Record with Persistent Value DCV Method | CA/Browser Forum)
Hi, thanks for your interest. This draft feature is already implemented and working in our development branch and will be available when the first ACME CAs start to support the feature.
Is there a way I can test the development branch with say pebble internally before it becomes live?
We don’t currently have test release to try, you could clone https://github.com/webprofusion/certify and try the windows service + desktop app, but it’s probably easiest just to wait a week or two for the next update.
In the app you can add any ACME CA under Settings > Certificate Authorities, then add an ACME account against that CA, then select that specific CA under Certificate > Advanced > Certificate Authority
