Help when certificate type is not supported

[schiwekM]

Issue description

Hi colleagues,

the docu page is overall quite helpful - however one thing I stumbled over is, that SF API is not supporting the certificates with a .pem file extension and throws the issue like The format of the provided certificate 'SF_Integration.pem' is not supported. Supported formats are: p12, pfx.

https://answers.sap.com/questions/13980793/sap-btp-destination-using-client-certificate-authe.html explains how to resolve the issue, but I would like to see that either SF directly supports the .pem format or that the docu mentions the workaround and in case the issue shows up.

BR,
Marten

Hi @schiwekM,
Thank you for you feedback. We will work on updating our documentation and we will forward this issue to the team responsible so the .pem format is added to the supported formats. It may take some time to do that. Once the format is supported, I will update the documentation respectively.

Hi @schiwekM,

The documentation is updated now to include not only .pem format but also .p12. See Using Mutual Transport Layer Security (mTLS).

And the .pem format has been added to the supported formats. You can check when it will be released at SAP/cloud-sdk-js#4473.

Hi @ekaterina-mitova,
much appreciated for the improved documentation and taking care that cloud sdk supports the format.
Thanks.
