PingOne

Importing a certificate and key pair

Use the Certificates and Key Pairs page to set up a certificate for your environment.

About this task

The certificate must be valid when you add it to PingOne. You cannot add a certificate before its validity period begins (the certificate’s NotBefore date) or after it expires (the certificate’s NotAfter date). The private key must be unencrypted. You cannot upload a private key that is protected by a password or passphrase. The certificate, private key, and certificate chain must all be PEM-encoded unless uploading a PKCS 12 file format.
