Managing registry certificates

For devices and registries to begin exchanging data and commands, you need to log in. This section describes how to manage registry certificates for the appropriate authorization method.

Note

When using an X.509 certificate along with a password, the password has higher priority.

To access a registry, use its unique ID or name. For information about how to find the unique ID or name, see Getting information about registries.

Getting a list of registry certificates

  1. In the management console, select the folder where the registry is located.
  2. Select the Yandex IoT Core.
  3. Select the registry.
  4. On the Overview page, go to the Certificates section.

If you don't have the Yandex.Cloud command line interface yet, install and initialize it.

The folder specified in the CLI profile is used by default. You can specify a different folder using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.
