SPS uses only the key part of the CA certificate.
You can choose to upload a single certificate or a certificate chain.
To use a certificate with the SPS API, remove all data, and substitute line breaks with \n. The same is true for a certificate chain: copy individual certificates one after the other, and substitute line breaks with \n.
The following is an example certificate, as used on the SPS web interface:
