For secure communication between Smart ID Identity Manager
...
service providers and the identity provider, such as Smart ID Digital Access component
...
, SSL and SAML certificates are needed.
This article describes how to create demo certificates or extract certificates for the following use cases:

SSL server certificates for https communication: |
|
...
- Identity Manager, SSL server certificate in PKCS#12 format.
