Exporting a CA

You can export a private CA certificate, including the certificate body and certificate chain.

A root certificate is self-signed, and the certificate chain is null.

For details, see Parameters for Exporting a CA.

......*Hard-coded or plaintext AK and SK are risky. For security, encrypt your AK and SK and store them in the configuration file or environment variables.
