Description

The Add-AzureCertificate cmdlet uploads a certificate for an Azure service.

Examples

Example 1: Upload a certificate and password

PS C:\> Add-AzureCertificate -ServiceName "ContosoService" -CertToDeploy ContosoCertificate.pfx -Password "password"

This command uploads the certificate file ContosoCertificate.pfx to a cloud service. The command specifies the password for the certificate.

Example 2: Upload a certificate file

PS C:\> Add-AzureCertificate -serviceName "MyService" -CertToDeploy ContosoCertificate.cer

This command uploads the certificate file ContosoCertificate.cer to a cloud service. The command specifies the password for the certificate.

Example 3: Upload a certificate object

PS C:\> $Certificate = Get-Item cert:\PATTIFULLER\MY\1D6E34B526723E06C235BE8E5457784BF12C9F39
PS C:\> Add-AzureCertificate -ServiceName "ContosoService" -CertToDeploy $Certificate

The first command gets a certificate from the MY store of a user by using the Windows PowerShell core Get-Item cmdlet. The command stores the certificate in the $Certificate variable.

The second command uploads the certificate in $certificate to a cloud service.
