Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property provides the certificate or certificate store that the driver uses for SSL client authentication. The expected format depends on the value of SSLClientCertType, which determines whether the certificate is supplied as a file path, a base64-encoded string, or a reference to a system certificate store.

If the certificate store is password protected, set the password in SSLClientCertPassword.

See SSLClientCertType for details about supported certificate formats and how to supply them.
