Specifying certificate sourcees

You can specify a certificate source when you create static WS references to WSDL descriptions of secure connection web services.

In the metadata object tree, expand Common, expand WS references, and then add a reference.
In the dialog box that is displayed, specify the URL of the WSDL description to import, for example, https://hostname/InfoBase1/ws/WebService1?WSDL. Click OK.
This opens the dialog box where you can select the certificate sources (this includes the client certificate and the certification center certificates used for server certificate validation) for the HTTPS connection that will be established for downloading the WSDL description.

The form is intended for selecting the client certificate and specifying the server certificate validation method.

Select client certificate

Do not provide certificate. Establish connection only if the server does not require a client certificate.

Certificate file. Select a file that stores the client certificate and its private key. If the file is password-protected, prompt the user to enter the password when they attempt to establish a connection.

Windows certificate store. Select the client certificate from the Windows certificate store.

The following settings apply if multiple certificates are available for selection:

Select from applicable certificates. Prompt the user to select a certificate from the system certificate selection dialog box.

Select automatically. Use the first certificate that is applicable to the connection. The selection dialog box is not displayed.

Specify server certificate validation method

Do not validate server certificate. Do not validate the server certificate and do not use CA certificates.

CA certificate file. Select a file that stores CA certificates. If the file is password-protected, prompt the user to enter the password when they attempt to establish a connection.

Windows certificate store. Use CA certificates from Windows system certificate store.
