The certificate entry type is merely the document entry type with a requirement to fill in an expiration date. 😞 The entry type would be allot more useful if it decoded the certificate information. A simple text box where the user could paste in a PEM encoded certificate and private key would suffice. Sort of like what's being done now with SSH certificates.
For bonus points allow the user to export the certificate in their chosen format. PFX, PEM, DER etc
Decoding the certificate information would provide all the pertinent certificate details automatically such as:
Subject
Issuer
Validity period (expiration date)
Serial number
and much more...
Here's an example certificate in PEM format. You can decode this certificate at any number of places to see what information is provided:

Hello,
I like this idea. I will add this to our todo list.
David Hervieux
Do you have any idea as to when we might see this feature released? Is it something that's going to take years or are we talking the next few months?
Thanks
Hello,
I hope that we could add this for RDM 2020.3 planned for a beta in September
Regards
David Hervieux
