Parent Elements

Element Description

<serviceCredentials>

Specifies the credential to be used in authenticating the service, and the client credential validation related settings.

Remarks

Use this element to specify an X.509 certificate that will be used to authenticate the service to clients using Message security mode. If you are using a certificate that will be periodically renewed, then its thumbprint will change. In that case, use the subject name as the X509FindType because the certificate can be reissued with the same subject name.

For more information about using the element, see How to: Specify Client Credential Values.
