How to generate Private Key & Certificate

See example commands below to generate Private Key and Certificate. Adjust KEY_ALIAS and KEY_PASSWORD before running this. You will get two Private Key files (.pem extension) - with and without Passphrase. You will also get matching Certificate (.cer).

Code Block
languagebash
rm -rf ./generated
mkdir generated
cd generated

export KEY_ALIAS=FDOCI1
export KEY_PASSWORD=Welcome1

# Generate Private Key and Certificate with Passphrase 
keytool -genkey -keyalg RSA -alias $KEY_ALIAS -keystore keystore.jks -storepass $KEY_PASSWORD -validity 365 -keysize 2048 -keypass $KEY_PASSWORD

# Export Certificate
# This Certificate can be uploaded for FlexDeploy Certificate type Credential
keytool -exportcert -alias $KEY_ALIAS -file ${KEY_ALIAS}.cer -keystore keystore.jks -storepass $KEY_PASSWORD -rfc
sed -i 's/\r//g' ${KEY_ALIAS}.cer

# Convert to Keystore to PKCS12 format and export Private Key file.
keytool -importkeystore -srckeystore keystore.jks -srcstorepass $KEY_PASSWORD -destkeystore keystore.p12 -deststoretype pkcs12 -destkeypass $KEY_PASSWORD -deststorepass $KEY_PASSWORD

# This Private Key can be uploaded to FlexDeploy Private Key type Credential along with Passphrase (set in KEY_PASSWORD on line 6 above)
