Updating the Pega Process Fabric Hub keystore
Create a safe and secure connection between the Pega Process Fabric Hub and your remote application by updating the Pega Process Fabric Hub keystore that the Pega Process Fabric Hub uses to communicate with remote applications.
A keystore is a file that contains keys and certificates that you use for encryption, authentication, and serving content over HTTPS. You source a keystore from a data page, a URL, a keystore management service, or an external file. The Pega Process Fabric Hub includes a default keystore that expires, so you need to update the keystore by uploading a file. The Pega Process Fabric Hub supports the following keystore types:
- JKS
- JWK
- PKCS12
- KEYTAB
- KEY
- In the navigation pane of Dev Studio, click Records.
- Expand the Security category, and then click Keystore.
- In the list of instances, select PPFKS.
Result: The system displays the keystore rule form. By default, the system sources the PPFKS keystore location from the uploaded file. You cannot select a different keystore location. - On the Main tab of the keystore rule form, click Upload file.
- In the Upload file dialog box, click Choose File.
- In the dialog box, navigate to the file that you want to upload, and then click Open.
