Input parameters

Name

Description

CertificateTemplate

Pass one of the following objects with the changes the changes you want: 

ObjectNamingPattern

Only valid if the template PerUser attribute is already set to true. The pattern that stores signing Certificate objects in the Policy Tree by a user's identity. Each signer has a unique Policy folder. The default is $Sign.Project$\$Sign.Environment$\$Sign.User$.

  • (Optional Sub-folders) Specify text or macros for the Policy Distinguished name (DN). Delimit each sub-folder with backslashes. Use the appropriate syntax. For example, in Postman: $Sign.Project$\\$Sign.Environment$\\$Identity[$Sign.User$]$.

    • $Sign.Project$: A folder that contains the code signing project name.
    • $Sign.Environment$: A folder that contains the signing environment name.
    • $Sign.EnvironmentType$: A folder that contains the environment type.

  • (Requires one Key). Specify one Key, which also identifies the intended user, as a sub-folder:

    • $Identity[$Sign.User$]$: The certificate name ends with the Key User who has the authority to code sign.
    • $Identity[$Sign.User$,Given Name]$: The certificate name ends with the identity's name. Cannot be a group.
    • $Identity[$Sign.User$,Surname]$: The certificate name ends with the identity's last name.
    • $IdentityEmail[$Sign.User$]$: The certificate name ends with the person's email address.
    •  $Sign.User$: The Prefixed name and Universally Unique Identifier (UUID). For example, AD+JHTEST:{20711110-ffff-4813-a6fa-d5930fa37ac8}.

Example: ObjectNamingPattern: $Sign.Environment$\\$Sign.Project$\\$Identity[$Sign.User$]$ stores certificates in \VED\Policy\Code Signing\Certificates\[ProjectEnvThatUsesThisTemplate]\[Environment]\[user].
