Uploading the Client Certificate

Context

To connect your ABAP environment system with the SAP AEM broker, you need to upload the client certificate and the root certificate to the SAP AEM broker.

Procedure

      Make sure to select the correct root certificate.

    4. Right-click on it and select Export <name of certificate>.

    5. Select the Privacy Enabled Mail (.pem) format.

    6. choose Save.

  6. To upload the certificates to the SAP AEM broker, proceed as follows:

    1. Open the SAP AEM broker UI console.

    2. On the Manage tab, choose the Certificate Authorities tile.

    3. Choose the Add Client Certificate Authority button.
