Configure and Install the Signed Secuirty Certificate on Your Server

Use a third-party tool to create a file in Public-Key Cryptography Standards (PKCS) #12 format that includes the following:

• The private key that you created while generating the CSR.
• The signed certificate that you downloaded from MicroStrategy Identity Manager (see Register Your Third-Party iOS App with MicroStrategy Identity)

To save the private key and signed certificate in PKCS #12 format using OpenSSL:

1. Depending on your platform, do one of the following:
   • Linux: Open a terminal window.
   • Windows: Open a command prompt window as administrator, and navigate to the location where OpenSSL is installed. By default, this is C:\OpenSSL-Win32\bin.
2. Enter the following command:
   openssl pkcs12 -export -name Name -in signedCertificatefromUsher.crt -inkey PrivateKey.key -out PKCS12keystore.p12
   where:
   • Name = a user-friendly display name for the private key and certificate file.
   • signedCertificatefromUsher.crt is the file path and name of the signed certificate you downloaded from MicroStrategy Identity Manager.
   • PrivateKey.key = the name of the private key file that you created. If you saved the file in a location other than the default location, replace PrivateKey.key with the path to the file.
   • PKCS12keystore.p12 = the name that you want to give the private key and signed certificate that are converted to PKCS #12 format. By default, the file is created in the current location. To create the file in a different location, replace PKCS12keystore.p12 with a path to create the new file.
   The private key and signed certificate are saved as a file in PKCS #12 format.

Install the PKCS #12 file on the server for your mobile app.

Next, deploy the MicroStrategy Identity API to the server for your mobile app.
