/AWS1/CL_ACM=>EXPORTCERTIFICATE()

About ExportCertificate

Exports a private certificate issued by a private certificate authority (CA) for use anywhere. The exported file contains the certificate, the certificate chain, and the encrypted private 2048-bit RSA key associated with the public key that is embedded in the certificate. For security, you must assign a passphrase for the private key when exporting it.

For information about exporting and formatting a certificate using the ACM console or CLI, see Export a Private Certificate.
