How to check when a Certificate used by Qlik Sense expires or other certificate properties

[Daniel_Seo]

The below steps explain how to check a valid certificate in Windows Server. It would need to check it after deploying a new certificate.

This can also be used to verify when a third party certificate (see How to change the certificate used by the Qlik Sense Proxy to a custom third party certificate) expires and needs to be updated. 

Environment:

QlikView 
Qlik GeoAnalytics 
Qlik NPrinting 
Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows 

Open the Microsoft Management Console and add the Certificates Snap-in.

1. To launch the MMC, open the start menu and in the Run command line type mmc.   
   
   

1. In the MMC navigate to File > Add/Remove Snap-ins...
   
   
   
2. Choose Certificates and click Add. 
3. In the follow up dialogue, choose Local Computer 
4. Click Next and return to the overview menu to click OK. 
    

Locate and open the installed certificate.

1. In the MMC, navigate to Certificates (Local Computer) 
2. Expand Personal 
3. Expand Certificates
4. Open the certificate with a double click or right click. 

Review the certificate.

If it is a valid certificate, the certificate must fulfill the requirement below

• Issued to: Verify server name must match FQDN or domain of the local machine 
• Issued by: Verify Certificate Authority is the expected one
• Valid from: Valid dates between past and future 
• Message: Verify the message's status "You have a private key that corresponds to this certificate"
