Add-AzureCertificate
Uploads a certificate to an Azure cloud service.
Note
The cmdlets referenced in this documentation are for managing legacy Azure resources that use Azure Service Manager (ASM) APIs. This legacy PowerShell module isn't recommended when creating new resources since ASM is scheduled for retirement. For more information, see Azure Service Manager retirement.
The Az PowerShell module is the recommended PowerShell module for managing Azure Resource Manager (ARM) resources with PowerShell.
Important
Cloud Services (classic) is now deprecated for new customers and will be retired on August 31st, 2024 for all customers. New deployments should use the new Azure Resource Manager based deployment model Azure Cloud Services (extended support).

Description
The Add-AzureCertificate cmdlet uploads a certificate for an Azure service.
Examples
Example 1: Upload a certificate and password
PS C:\> Add-AzureCertificate -ServiceName "ContosoService" -CertToDeploy ContosoCertificate.pfx -Password "password"
This command uploads the certificate file ContosoCertificate.pfx to a cloud service. The command specifies the password for the certificate.
Example 2: Upload a certificate file
PS C:\> Add-AzureCertificate -serviceName "MyService" -CertToDeploy ContosoCertificate.cer
This command uploads the certificate file ContosoCertificate.cer to a cloud service. The command specifies the password for the certificate.
Example 3: Upload a certificate object
PS C:\> $Certificate = Get-Item cert:\PATTIFULLER\MY\1D6E34B526723E06C235BE8E5457784BF12C9F39
PS C:\> Add-AzureCertificate -ServiceName "ContosoService" -CertToDeploy $Certificate
The first command gets a certificate from the MY store of a user by using the Windows PowerShell core Get-Item cmdlet. The command stores the certificate in the $Certificate variable.
The second command uploads the certificate in $certificate to a cloud service.
