Manage PKI via the Console.
The ‘JSON Web Signature’ (JWS) is used as part of a REST header to validate requests made to certain endpoints (Create Beneficiary and Create Credit Transfer, for example).
Note that:
- Having this header indicates that you have signed the request with your private key.
- Any requests to the specific endpoints that require a JWS header, which do not include it, will fail.
For more information on PKI and configuring your security, see the Security Overview.
PKI Configuration
In order to created a JWS you must first generate a private key via the PKI Configuration section of the Nuapay Console.
To access the PKI configuration:
- Click PKI Management from the left-side menu:
- Click Generate PKI Key if you have not already created one.
See Generating the PKI Key and Certificate via the UI for the full set of steps.
