Exporting a certificate
The following example shows how to use the ExportCertificate function. The function exports a private certificate issued by a private certificate authority (CA) in the PKCS #8 format. (It is not possible to export public certificates whether they are ACM-issued or imported.) It also exports the certificate chain and private key. In the example, the passphrase for the key is stored in a local file.
