Deleting client certificates by using hclscp links
Simplify the deletion of client certificates by using hclscp links.
About this task
Using an hclscp link, delete all certificates that have been imported for Connections by using the hclscp protocol. Optionally, specify the import of a new certificate after deleting the existing certificates.
Procedure
- If you want to be able to import a new certificate after
the delete operation, store the client certificate p12 file on a server
where it can be accessed with an HTTPS link from the Connections mobile
app.
You can also distribute client certificates by using hclscp links. For more information, see the Importing client certificates by using hclscp links topic.
- To delete all certificates that have been imported for
HCL Connections:
hclscp://com.hcl.connectons/importcert?action=DeleteAll
- To delete all certificates that have been imported for
Connections then import a new certificate:
hclscp://com.hcl.connections/importcert?url=<encode_p12_certificate_file_url>&action=DeleteAll
-
Email the hclscp link to your users. For example:
For example:
hclscp://com.hcl.connections/importcert?url=http%3A%2F%2Fconnections.example.com%2Fcertificates%2Fuser1.p12&action=DeleteAll
- Provide the following instruction to your mobile users:
If there are no certificates, DeleteAll does nothing.
On Android, DeleteAll will not delete the certifications from the Certificate Storage. It deletes the associated aliases tracked by the Connections app.
