Description

A list of TLS certificates that should be trusted by Google Chrome for server authentication, with constraints added outside the certificate. If no constraint of a certain type is present, then any name of that type is allowed. Certificates should be base64-encoded. At least one constraint must be specified for each certificate. See https://chromeenterprise.google/policies/?policy=CACertificatesWithConstraints for more information about schema and formatting. Example value: [ { "certificate": "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", "constraints": { "permitted_dns_names": [ "example.org" ], "permitted_cidrs": [ "10.1.1.0/24" ] } } ]
