# Importing Certificate from PFX Files

You can import the following certificates in the PFX format:

- A TLS certificate used by your organization and signed by a CA.
- A self-signed TLS certificate generated with a third-party tool.

::: note

Consider the following:

- The TLS certificate must pass validation on Veeam ONE Server. Otherwise, you will not be able to import the TLS certificate. 
- If a PFX file contains a certificate chain, only the end entity certificate will be imported.

:::

To import a TLS certificate from a PFX file, do the following on the machine where Veeam ONE server component is installed:

1. Run the Veeam ONE Settings utility.

   For more information, see [Veeam ONE Settings Utility](appendix.md).

2. In the **Server** section, open the **Web API Certificate** tab.
3. To import the certificate, click **Import** and browse the certificate file.
