Configuring a keystore by using a data page reference

To configure a keystore, you can reference a keystore that is stored in a data page.

Before you begin: You must create a keystore data instance in Pega Platform with Keystore location equal to Custom – Source master key from other KMS using a data page or Reference to data page before you can configure the keystore.
  1. Open a keystore from the navigation panel by clicking Records > Security > Keystore and selecting a data page keystore from the instance list.
  2. Create a data page that contains keystore data, if one does not exist. For more information, see Creating a data page for a keystore.
  3. In the Source data page field, enter the name of the data page that contains keystore data, for example, D_KeystoreJKS.
  4. In the Keystore type list, select the keystore file type.
    • Java KeyStore (JKS)
    • Public Key Cryptography Standards (PKCS12)
    • JSON Web Key (JWK)
  5. Select the password source for the keystore.
    • Fixed password – After you select Fixed password, in the Keystore password field, enter the password to the keystore file.
    • Clipboard property – After you select Clipboard property, in the Clipboard password property field, enter the name of the clipboard property that you want to get the password from, for example, operatorID.pyPassword.
    • Function – After you select Function, in the Function field, enter the rule utility function to be invoked to get the password. The function must comply with the following syntax: @(RuleSetName:RuleUtilityLibraryName).RuleUtilityFunctionName, for example, @(myApp:PasswordUtil).getPassword().
