Before you begin

Before you begin, you need to generate encryption certificates for encrypting the SAML connection.

  1. You can use the Bash script from the mattermost/docs repository on GitHub, or any other suitable method. See the generate self-signed certificates documentation for details on generating a self-signed x509v3 certificate for use with multiple URLs / IPs.
  2. Save the two files that are generated. They are the private key and the public key. In the System Console, they are referred to as the Service Provider Private Key and the Service Provider Public Certificate respectively.
