Client Certificates

Client certificates are used by some APIs to as a means of authentication. Unetus supports assigning a client certificate to a specific domain name and will automatically use them automatically whenever a request to that domain is sent.

Import Certificates

Unetus supports PFX (Mac) and PEM (Windows and Linux) certificates.

To import a new certificate, click Document Settings or Collection Settings then the Client Certificates tab.

Access client certificate settings via Document or Collection Settings. Depending on whether you are working with a Document or Collection, access client certificate settings via Document Settings or Collection Settings.

Once you click New Certificate in the Client Certificates tab, you will be prompted to fill out the following information.

  • Host: certificate will be sent when the host (and port if specified) matches
  • PFX: certificate in PFX or PKCS12 format (only supported on Mac)
  • CRT File + Key File: certificate and key pair (only supported on Windows and Linux)
  • Passphrase: An optional passphrase for the certificate, if required

After importing a certificate, it will show up in the main certificates list in the Client Certificates tab. From here, the certificate can be enabled, disabled, or deleted.
