Certificate authentication is needed in some special cases, and more convenient for use in automation (ie. Robot certificates).
 
 
 
Some communities require certificate authentication and such users might already have a certificate, that certificate is likely good to use with Swestore.
 
 
 
This pages describes the procedures to acquire a certificate (if needed), how to reformat the certificate for use with various tools and finally how to make Swestore aware that you have a certificate.
 
 
 
=== Acquire an eScience client certificate  ===
 
If you already have a valid grid or eScience certificate you don't need to acquire another one.
 
 
 
Acquire a certificate by following the ''Requesting a certificate'' instruction step '''only''' on the [[Grid certificates#Requesting a certificate|certificate documentation page]]. This step can be performed while waiting for the storage application to be approved.
 
 
 
=== Manage your eScience client certificate ===
 
There are multiple suppliers of certificates. Depending on the supplier this step varies a bit.
 
:; For Digicert certificates
 
:: If intending to access Swestore from a SNIC resource, please make sure you also [[Exporting_a_client_certificate|export the certificate]], transfer it to the intended SNIC resource and [[Preparing_a_client_certificate|prepare it for use with grid tools]].
 
:; For Nordugrid certificates
 
:: Please make sure to also [[Requesting_a_grid_certificate_from_the_Nordugrid_CA#Installing_the_certificate_in_your_browser|install your client certificate in your browser]].
 
 
 
=== Register your eScience client certificate in SUPR ===
 
 
 
You have to register the certificate in SUPR for Swestore to be aware of it. Make sure your certificate is stored in your browser, log in to [https://supr.snic.se SUPR ], click '''Personal Information''' in the left menu, click '''Register Client Certificate''' and follow the instructions. Please wait for up to 10 minutes for this information to be distributed to Swestore.
