Creating a CA Bundle

Create a CA bundle to help establish a certificate chain.

You need a valid privacy enhanced mail (PEM) file to create a CA bundle.

    1. Open the navigation menu and click Identity & Security.
    2. Under Certificates, click CA Bundles.
    3. Click Create CA Bundle.
    4. Under Compartment, choose the compartment where you want to create the CA bundle.
    5. Enter a display name for the CA bundle. Avoid entering confidential information.
    6. (Optional) Enter a description to help identify the CA bundle. Avoid entering confidential information.
    7. Under PEM file, do one of the following:
      • To upload a file, click Upload File, click Select One, and then choose the PEM file that you want to upload.
      • To paste the contents of the PEM file directly, open the PEM file and copy its contents to the clipboard. Then, click Paste Content, and paste the contents of the clipboard in the text box.
    8. (Optional) To apply tags, click Show Tagging Options. For more information about tags, see Resource Tags.
    9. Click Create.
      It can take a while to create certificate-related resources.
  • 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>

    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

    For a complete list of parameters and values for CLI commands, see the CLI Command Reference.
