Examples

The JSON fragment below describes a certificate retrieved by its path and a password to be used as a client credential in a confidential client application:

{
 "ClientCredentials": [
 {
  "SourceType": "Path",
  "CertificateDiskPath": "c:\\temp\\WebAppCallingWebApiCert.pfx",
  "CertificatePassword": "password"
 }]
}

The code below describes programmatically in C#, a the same certificate.

CredentialDescription credentialDescription = new CredentialDescription
{
    SourceType = CredentialSource.Path,
    CertificateDiskPath = "c:\\temp\\WebAppCallingWebApiCert.pfx",
    CertificatePassword = "password"
};
