the same Apple ID to renew this certificate every year.) - Click on Create a Certificate
- Accept the terms and conditions and continue by clicking on Accept
- Write a license identifier in Notes
- Click on Browse… and select Vendor-Signed_ Certificate_Signing_Request.csr file previously downloaded
- Click on Upload
- If successful, click on Download, otherwise repeat the operation.
- Go back to the Ermetix Admin and click on “Upload certificate” (“Overwrite certificate” if you are renewing) and select file with .pem extension downloaded from the Apple portal. (NOTE: A mail notification will alert you yearly when the certificate is going to expire.)
