Question

How to configure SSL certificate programmatically

Hi,

 

I have a config.json (it works fine) like

 

 

 

{
 "certificates": {
 "validate": true,
 "allow_self_signed": false,
 "cert_chain": [
 "/path2cert/entrust_l1k.pem",
 "/path2cert/entrust_g2.pem"
 ]
 }
 ...
}

 

 

 

 

How could i write it in programming? Because ServerCertFileInfo property only allow me to specify one cert file

 

 

 

var client = new ConnectedThingClient(new ClientConfigurator
{
	AllowSelfSignedCertificates = false, 
	DisableCertValidation = false,
	ServerCertFileInfo = new CertFileInfo { CertType = 0 /* TLS */, FilePath = @"/path2cert/entrust_g2.pem" },
	
	...
});

 

 

 

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated

 

Regards,

Hung Tran

Hi,

 

Thanks for your quick reply, however you misread my question, the Thingworx server is configured properly, it's already been working with config.json + wsems / localems. I just don't know how to setup cert chain for the ClientConfigurator object.
