Adding a New Certificate |
|
Before you begin this task:
You must have the role of Security Administrator to add a new certificate to the trust store.
Adding a Digital Certificate, registers the certificate in Process Platform. While adding a certificate in the_Security Administration_ task, you must also specify all details.
Note:
- Certificates available through the Process Platform installation are present in the Certificates tab by default (platform level). These certificates reside in the platform level.
- Certificates available from Java Runtime Environment (JRE) reside also in the platform level.
- All the other certificates that you add, reside in either platform or the organization level where the certificates are added.
The level can be selected from the View certificates trusted by: drop-down list in the table.
To add certificates to either level, you must have one of the following roles:
Level |
Role |
|---|---|
Platform |
Security ISVP Admin |
Organization |

Certificates in the platform level are applicable for all organizations and those in the organization level are applicable only for that organization. Hence, a specific role is required to add, delete, and update certificate in the platform level. To add a certificate at the platform level, select platform from the drop-down list in the Certificates tab. Similarly, select organization to add the certificate at the Organization level.
