Trusting a self signed certificate in Oracle Visual Builder Cloud

When you are setting up a development environment you sometimes need to use self signed certificates or a separate developer CA, in order to use this in VBCS you will need to make sure that these certificates are trusted by the kss://system/trust store and have the latest 18.3.3 patches.

To do this you need to head to /em aka "Fusion Middleware Control" for your instance and navigate to the keystore page for the domain.



You then need to navigate to the system/trust keystore and select manage:



The simply import your certificate, it need to be in .pem format so you might need to do some conversion depending on what you have lying about (Note if you dragged and dropped the certificate from Chrome you can just convert using openssl x509 -inform der -in certificate.cer -out certificate.pem):


This should now be trusted, you may have to restart the Breeze war in order to see the changes take effect.
