If you have multiple Cameyo servers you can create one certificate for all of them.

- Either copy the CSR into the clipboard or save it into a file (whatever is requested by your certificate provider
- Create the certificate at your preferred certificate provider using the generated CSR
- Once you have downloaded the certificate from your certificate provider, import it into the DigiCert Utility (the utility is capable of reading most certificate types you can get from your provider)
- After the certificate has successfully imported, select it from the list
- Click [Export Certificate]
- Export the certificate as a PFX file (including all certificates)
- Click [Next]
