Import a PFX/P12 into the Windows Certificate Stores

See more Certificates Examples

Demonstrates how to import the certificates contained in a .pfx/.p12 to the Windows certificate stores. React Native

import { JsonObject, Pfx } from '@chilkat/react-native'

function chilkatExample() {
  const pfx = new Pfx();

  try {
    pfx.loadPfxFile('qa_data/pfx/example.p12', 'p12Password');
  } catch {
    console.log(pfx.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  // See the online reference documentation for more information about the ImportToWindows method.

  // Mark imported privae keys as exportable.
  const exportable = true;

  // If userProtected is true, the user is to be notified through a dialog box or other method when certain attempts to use this key are made. 
  const userProtected = false;

  // If machineKeyset is true, the private keys are stored under the local computer and not under the current user. 
  const machineKeyset = false;

  // If allowOverwriteKey is true, allow overwrite of the existing key. 
  const allowOverwriteKey = false;

  // If allowExport is true, then the imported key can later be exported back to a PFX.
  // (It also allows for applications to directly access the private key material.)
  const allowExport = true;

  // Indicate where to import types of certs.
  const leafStore = 'My';
  const intermediateStore = 'CertificationAuthority';
  const rootStore = 'AuthRoot';

  try {
    pfx.importToWindows(exportable, userProtected, machineKeyset, allowOverwriteKey, allowExport, leafStore, intermediateStore, rootStore, '');
  } catch {
    console.log(pfx.lastErrorText);
    return;

  // Show information about the certificates imported
