Creating a CA Bundle

Create a certificate authority (CA) bundle to help establish a certificate chain.

Note

You need a valid privacy enhanced mail (PEM) file to create a CA bundle.
1. On the CA Bundles list page, select Create CA Bundle. If you need help finding the list page, see Listing CA Bundles.
2. Enter the following information:
  
  Name: Enter the name of the CA bundle.
  
  Description: (Optional) Enter a description for the CA bundle.
  
  Compartment: Select the compartment where the CA bundle resides from the list.
  
  PEM file: Select one of the following options for how you want to import the certificate in PEM format:
  
  Upload file: Select the Drop a file or select one box and browse to where the PEM file resides. Select it for uploading. You can also drag the PEM file from your computer to this box.
  
  Paste content: Open the PEM file on your computer. Copy the contents and paste it into the text box.
3. Select Create certificate.
  It can take a while to create certificate-related resources.
Tagging

If you have permissions to create a resource, then you also have permissions to apply free-form tags to that resource. To apply a defined tag, you must have permissions to use the tag namespace. For more information about tagging, see Resource Tags. If you're not sure whether to apply tags, skip this option or ask an administrator. You can apply tags later.

Select Create CA bundle. The CA bundle you created appears in the CA Bundles list page.

Use the oci certs-mgmt ca-bundle create command and required parameters to create a CA bundle:

oci certs-mgmt ca-bundle create --ca-bundle-pem <CAbundle_contents> --compartment-id <compartment_OCID> --name <bundle_name> [OPTIONS]

For example:

oci certs-mgmt ca-bundle create --ca-bundle-pem file://path/to/cabundle.pem --compartment-id ocid1.compartment.oc1..<unique_id> --name mycabundle
