Description

The New-AzKeyVaultCertificatePolicy cmdlet creates an in-memory certificate policy object for Azure Key Vault.

Examples

Example 1: Create a certificate policy

New-AzKeyVaultCertificatePolicy -SecretContentType "application/x-pkcs12" -SubjectName "CN=contoso.com" -IssuerName "Self" -ValidityInMonths 6 -ReuseKeyOnRenewal

SecretContentType               : application/x-pkcs12
Kty                             :
KeySize                         : 2048
Curve                           :
Exportable                      :
ReuseKeyOnRenewal               : True
SubjectName                     : CN=contoso.com
DnsNames                        :
KeyUsage                        :
Ekus                            :
ValidityInMonths                : 6
IssuerName                      : Self
CertificateType                 :
RenewAtNumberOfDaysBeforeExpiry :
RenewAtPercentageLifetime       :
EmailAtNumberOfDaysBeforeExpiry :
EmailAtPercentageLifetime       :
CertificateTransparency         :
Enabled                         : True
Created                         :
Updated                         :

This command creates a certificate policy that is valid for six months and reuses the key to renew the certificate.

Example 2

Creates an in-memory certificate policy object. (autogenerated)

New-AzKeyVaultCertificatePolicy -IssuerName 'Self' -KeyType RSA -RenewAtNumberOfDaysBeforeExpiry <Int32> -SecretContentType application/x-pkcs12 -SubjectName 'CN=contoso.com' -ValidityInMonths 6

Example 3: Create a Subject Alternate Name (or SAN) certificate

New-AzKeyVaultCertificatePolicy -SecretContentType "application/x-pkcs12" -SubjectName "CN=contoso.com" -DnsName "contoso.com","support.contoso.com","docs.contoso.com" -IssuerName "Self"

SecretContentType               : application/x-pkcs12
Kty                             : RSA
KeySize                         : 2048
Curve                           :
Exportable                      :
ReuseKeyOnRenewal               : False
SubjectName                     : CN=contoso.com
DnsNames                        : {contoso.com, support.contoso.com, docs.contoso.com}
KeyUsage                        :
Ekus                            :
ValidityInMonths                :
IssuerName                      : Self
CertificateType                 :
RenewAtNumberOfDaysBeforeExpiry :
RenewAtPercentageLifetime       :
EmailAtNumberOfDaysBeforeExpiry :
EmailAtPercentageLifetime       :
CertificateTransparency         :
Enabled                         : True
Created                         :
Updated                         :

This example creates a SAN certificate with 3 DNS names.
