Update Expiring SAML Certificate in UniversitySite

When your SAML certificate for UniversitySite is about to expire you have a seammless method available to you to transition to the new one.

  1. Open Global Settings from InstructorSite (you must be a UniversitySite administrator)
  2. Open Login Settings
  3. Expand SAML Setup for Production Environment
  4. Find "Provider's Cert and drag the lower right corner of the box/window to expand the window size until you can see "--------END CERTIFICATE ------"
  5. Copy your new certificate text to your clipboard
  6. Paste this new Certificate below the "--------END CERTIFICATE ------" line in the Certificate field or delete the current certificate and paste in your new one if you prefer.

Note: UniversitySite will try each certificate you supply this way until it gets to one that works so in this way you can ensure a seamless transition across an expiring certificate.
