Initialize-D365RsatCertificate

SYNOPSIS

Create and configure test automation certificate

SYNTAX

Initialize-D365RsatCertificate [-CertificateFileName <String>] [-PrivateKeyFileName <String>]
 [-Password <SecureString>] [-CertificateOnly] [-KeepCertificateFile] [-OutputPath <String>]
 [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

Creates a new self signed certificate for automated testing and reconfigures the AOS Windows Identity Foundation configuration to trust the certificate

EXAMPLES

EXAMPLE 1

Initialize-D365RsatCertificate

This will generate a certificate for issuer 127.0.0.1 and install it in the trusted root certificates and modify the wif.config of the AOS to include the thumbprint and trust the certificate.

EXAMPLE 2

Initialize-D365RsatCertificate -CertificateOnly

This will generate a certificate for issuer 127.0.0.1 and install it in the trusted root certificates. No actions will be taken regarding modifying the AOS wif.config file.

Use this when installing RSAT on a machine different from the AOS where RSAT is pointing to.

EXAMPLE 3

Initialize-D365RsatCertificate -CertificateOnly -KeepCertificateFile

This will generate a certificate for issuer 127.0.0.1 and install it in the trusted root certificates. No actions will be taken regarding modifying the AOS wif.config file. The pfx will be copied into the default "c:\temp\d365fo.tools" folder after creation.

Use this when installing RSAT on a machine different from the AOS where RSAT is pointing to.

The pfx file enables you to import the same certificate across your entire network, instead of creating one per machine.
