Does anybody know if it's possible to issue several certificates from a CSV like this:

CN=TestCertificate1, DNS=testServer1
CN=TestCertificate2, DNS=testServer2
CN=TestCertificate3, DNS=testServer3

Using a given template and getting a pfx as output?

Thank you

This should be doable, although not by simply uploading a .CSV file and downloading the output. The easiest way would be to use some of the PKI Client Cmdlets in Windows PowerShell. These are PowerShell commands that let you interact with a Microsoft CA from a script or the command line.

The first step, would be to generate a certificate request using the DN information you find in the .CSV file. A great tutorial on generating the CSR can be found here. Once the certificates have been approved on the CA, you can export them using the relevant PKI Client Cmdlet, Export-PfxCertificate via your PowerShell script.

Hope this helps!

  • Thank you Shadowman! Now I am stuck on exporting all the certificates I managed to issue remotely. For some reason I cant use the Export-PfxCertificate if I am not in Windows 8, -even though I am running PS 4.0- – srbob Mar 10 '14 at 09:46
