Certificate Import
Manually import existing S/MIME certificates into Conbool.
Existing certificates can be manually imported if they were issued outside of Conbool.
Procedure
- Click the "+" icon in the upper right corner of the S/MIME tab.
- Select "Import certificate".
- Upload the required files one after another:
- Public key (.p7b or .cer)
- Private key (.p12)
- Enter the password for the private key (if required).
- After successful validation, the certificate appears in the "Private Certificates" tab.
Notes
- Only valid certificates with a complete chain can be imported.
- Expiration warnings are automatically displayed in the dashboard.
- Imported certificates are not automatically renewed.
For ongoing use, connecting to an MPKI or automatic issuance via groups is recommended.
