CA certificates

CA certificates must not contain any metadata. Safeguard for Privileged Sessions uses only the key part of the certificate.

To use a certificate with the Safeguard for Privileged Sessions API, remove all metadata, and substitute line breaks with \n.

The following is an example certificate, as used on the Safeguard for Privileged Sessions web interface:

The same certificate, as accepted by the Safeguard for Privileged Sessions API:
