Properties for configuring credential details.
Use SPI
Select this option to use the credentials from the
SPI. When this option is deselected, local credentials are used.
By default, the option is deselected.
Alias
Sets
an alternative name for a credential managed by the Signature service.
SPI Name
Sets the name of the signing server provider interface.
This name is provided to the Signature service to extend the digital
signature functionality when credentials are not exposed to AEM
forms Server.
Certificate

the location of the certificate on the file system. This option
is available when the Use SPI option is selected.
When you
click the ellipsis button , the Open dialog box opens. In the dialog
box, you can select a file from your computer or from a network
location. During run time, if you selected a file from a location
on your computer, it must exist in the same location on AEM forms
Server.

pass custom inputs to an implementation of the SPI. This option
is available when the Use SPI option is selected.
If you
provide a literal value, clicking the ellipsis button opens the
SPI properties dialog box. (See

.) In the dialog box, add, remove, and edit the
keys and values for each SPI property. The SPI implementation determines the
keys that you provide. For information about creating custom service providers,
