Importing the signed certificate

To import the signed certificate, copy the certificate file to your SOAR appliance system and run the cert-import command.

About this task

Enter the following command in your SSH client to import the certificate.

sudo cert-import <cert>

Where <cert> can be a user certificate, such as cert.cer, or a certificate chain, such as ca-chain.p7b.

After you import the signed certificate, restart the resilient-messaging.service by entering the following command.

sudo systemctl restart resilient-messaging.service

Open a browser and connect to the SOAR Platform by entering the following location.

https://<hostname for SOAR Platform>

If you see an error message, java.security.cert.CertificateException: Fail to parse input stream after the cert-import command, you might have extra characters (even white space) in the certificate file. To correct the error, open the certificate file to ensure the content starts with -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- and ends with -----END CERTIFICATE-----. After you fix the certificate file, import it again.
