Add certificate to the root store

If a self-signed certificate was selected, you should import the certificate into the Trusted Root Certification Authorities container on every device where the Adaptiva Admin Portal will be accessed. Each OneSite Administrator who will use the Admin Portal from a remote device will need to import the certificate. Alternatively, the certificate can be deployed using a GPO or Intune policy.
