SSL Public Key authentication - API Express

Hi Guys

When using API Express I can connect to MySQL using a username and password as authentication. However I have been asked to connect my application to a MySQL using a Public Key (SSL) instead for better security. Can anyone tell me what I would do with this Public Key in Appery?

It appears to be quite a commonly used authentication process when exchanging data so I was hoping it would be built in to the API Express section but can only find username and password fields.

Have been trying to solve this for a few months and have found plenty of information on setting up Private/Public keys for database servers such as MySQL but can't find any info on where to place Public Key on the Appery end.

Help would be much appreciated. Let me know if you need any more information.

Regards
Anthony

Hello Anthony,

Appery.io doesn't support custom public keys. It uses our default SSL certificate for all requests
