| Operation | Description |
|---|---|
| download | Downloads the CA certificate for the current Azure Sphere tenant as an X.509 .cer file. |
| download-chain | Downloads the CA certificate chain for the current Azure Sphere tenant as a PKCS#7 .p7b file. |

download
Downloads the CA certificate for the current Azure Sphere tenant as an X.509 .cer file.
Required parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| --destination | String | Specifies the path and filename at which to save the tenant CA certificate. The file path can be an absolute or relative path but must have the .cer extension. |
Optional parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| --index | Integer | Specifies the index of the certificate to download. Run azsphere ca-certificate list to list the certificates and the index values. If no index is supplied, the active certificate is downloaded. You can specify either the index value or thumbprint. |
| --thumbprint | String | Specifies the thumbprint of the certificate to download. Run azsphere ca-certificate list to list the certificates and the thumbprint values. If no thumbprint is supplied, the active certificate is downloaded. You can specify either the index value or thumbprint. |
| -t, --tenant | GUID or name | Specifies the tenant to perform this operation in. Overrides the default selected tenant. You can specify either the tenant ID or tenant name. |
Global parameters
The following global parameters are available for the Azure Sphere CLI:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| --debug | Increases logging verbosity to show all debug logs. If you find a bug, provide output generated with the --debug flag on when submitting a bug report. |
| -h, --help | Prints CLI reference information about commands and their arguments and lists available subgroups and commands. |
| --only-show-errors | Shows only errors, suppressing warnings. |
| -o, --output | Changes the output format. The available output formats are json, jsonc (colorized JSON), tsv (Tab-Separated Values), table (human-readable ASCII tables), and yaml. By default the CLI outputs table. To learn more about the available output formats, see Output format for Azure Sphere CLI commands. |
| --query | Uses the JMESPath query language to filter the output returned from Azure Sphere Security Services. See JMESPath tutorial and Query Azure CLI command output for more information and examples. |
| --verbose | Prints information about resources created in Azure Sphere during an operation and other useful information. Use --debug for full debug logs. |
Note
If you are using Azure Sphere classic CLI, see Global parameters for more information on available options.
Example
Example to specify index to download a required certificate:
azsphere ca-certificate download --destination ca-cert.cer --index 1
Example to specify thumbprint to download a required certificate:
azsphere ca-certificate download --destination ca-cert.cer --thumbprint <value>
You should see output like this:
Succeeded
