Reinstall ArcGIS Portal SSL samlcert

[CraigPatterson]

While troubleshooting an issue with the Portal's SSL certificates being invalid, I inadvertently deleted the out of the box SAMLCERT Self-Signed SSL Certificate found under Portal Admin -> Security -> SSLCertificates. I clicked on the SSL Certificate and clicked delete. 

I've been searching for documentation for information/instructions on how to regenerate that certificate without success. Does anyone know if there are any scripts or utilities that I can use to recreate this? I'm not sure if its causing any problems but would like to restore it to how it was possibly. 

Thanks,

Craig Patterson

The samlcert alias is a self-signed certificate used for signing SAML requests to an external identity provider. Since it's self-signed, you can just use the 'Generate' operation from the machine endpoint of the Portal Admin API. I've attached the reference documentation plus a screenshot of the appropriate settings (just replace <FQDN> with your machine's fully-qualified domain name), that should put things back in place!
