Configuring Certificates

Session AI supports secure access to third-party data by Mutual Transport Layer Security (TLS) Authentication using the X.509 Certificates. Certificate Authority (CA) signed certificates are exchanged between Session AI (client) and a third-party server before initiating any data exchange. When calling each other’s API to transfer secure data, the valid and signed certificate is used in the API call.
