I'm facing below issue-

One or more fields contain incorrect values:
Error in element 'authentication-certificate' on line 18, column 10: Exactly one of a thumbprint or certificate-id or body must be specified.

I'm configuring correct Certificate-id in inbound policy but getting above error . I have tried with thumbprint and body also .
<inbound>
<base />
<authentication-certificate certificate-id="client-certificate-dev" />
</inbound>

    Hi @ssstestpbix

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A! Thanks for posting the question.

    When you are using authentication-certificate, Please make sure that the certificate needs to be installed into API Management first and is identified by its thumbprint or certificate ID (resource name).

    I have same issue. certificate is installed into API Management's Certificate tab (from Key Vault). it still gives the error. Below is the error I receive:

    One or more fields contain incorrect values:
    Error in element 'authentication-certificate' on line 16, column 10: The Certificate with id 'testKVCert' and thumbprint 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' is configured with KeyVault secret 'https://kvtestldb.vault.azure.net/secrets/CERTtest' and cannot be referenced by thumbprint. Please reference it with certificate-id 'testKVCert' in the policy.

    How can I fix this issue? Please help!
