When your SAML Certificate for UniversitySite is about to expire you have a seamless method available to you to transition to the new one.
- Open Global Settings from InstructorSite (you must be a UniversitySite administrator).
- Open Login Settings.
- Expand SAML Setup for Production Environment.
- 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 ------".
- Copy your new Certificate text to your clipboard.
- 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.
