## 7.Enroll Certificate

Now, you can proceed with the certificate enrollment. Click **Enroll your certificate.**

![](https://demo.harica.gr/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/email-only-file11.png)

You have the option to generate your certificate in .p12 format or submit a CSR file you have already prepared (e.g. using openssl).

The **Generate Certificate** option requires you to select the key type/size and set a passphrase that you **must remember** since it will protect the private key of your certificate. Click **Enroll Certificate**.

When the enrollment process is completed, you can download your certificate. Click **Download**.

![](https://demo.harica.gr/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/email-only-file13.png)

If the process has been completed successfully, a file named Certificate.p12 will be downloaded to the Downloads folder (by default) of your computer.

Run this file to install the certificate on your computer.
