Hello, I'm trying to setup basic policy.json file to configure firefox for all my users. I'm stuck in one step, we require SSL client certificate to access our intranet.

1.So far we are importing personal *.pfx file via Firefox GUI in personal tab, but I want to import this cert via policy.json and So far im not able to do it, I dont know how to set requiret certifacate password.

2. I was also thinking using Windows cert store. I imported certifacete to Windows and set flag security.enterprise_roots.enabled to true in about:config. But firefox is not using it. However Edge is working just fine.

Only way i was able to get website working so far is manualy importing that certificate via Firefox GUI.

Which way should I go? And do you have any tips how to get it working? Thanks a lot.

security.enterprise_roots.enabled should definitely work for using the certificate in the windows store and that would be the easiest thing to do.

You won't see it listed, but it should still work. What is the error you are getting?
