Trouble uploading SSL Certificates using WebHost IDE

Using WebEditor, I go to the Examples, then select the Wifinina Generic library for a firmware update which is found under tools. As far as I can tell, there is no option for SSL certificate updates! Where may I find this if it is where it belongs?

I am running a 2020 MacBook pro with FireFox. I've a Nano IOT33 connected to the serial port and is operating correctly. Thanks for any help with this. JD

Hi @jeffdrewett. If you would like to upload other SSL certificates to the NINA module on your Nano 33 IoT, I recommend using the ""Upload SSL Root Certificates" feature in Arduino IDE 2.x. You can learn how to do that from this tutorial:

https://docs.arduino.cc/software/ide-v2/tutorials/ide-v2-fw-cert-uploader#certificates-uploader

If you like working with command line tools, an advanced alternative is the "Arduino Firmware Uploader" tool:

Yep, thanks for your suggestions and leads to a work around. I used IDE 1.8 to get the job done. Don't know if it is my mac os, but I don't see the tools available to me in 2.0.
Thanks Jeff

You're welcome. I'm glad you were able to upload your certificates.

On macOS, you should have a "menu bar" at the top of the screen when you have an Arduino IDE 2.x window open. That menu bar should contain a "Tools" menu, which in turn contains the "Upload SSL Root Certificates" menu item:

Do you see something different when you use Arduino IDE 2.x?

Yes, I do see that in IDE 2 and previous versions. I think my problem is that I am using the Arduino IOT cloud "WebEditor" where I can't find these tools except in obscure locations such as the WiFi firmware updater where those things are done in the cloud I guess.

The Webeditor is my problem I believe. I think the accurate question will be where to upload SSL certs in the Arduino Web Editor. Thanks for your help. Jeff

Yes, that is expected. I assumed that the "2.0" in your comment meant "Arduino IDE 2.x":

The answer to that question is: Arduino Web Editor does not have this capability.

This is why I offered you the alternative solutions of using Arduino IDE or the "Arduino Firmware Uploader" command line tool.
