Summary
The documentation provides explicit instructions and screenshots for importing certificates on Windows clients only, using Windows-specific tools (File Explorer, Certificate Import Wizard). There are no instructions or examples for Linux or macOS clients, nor are cross-platform certificate import methods discussed. This creates friction for non-Windows users attempting to complete the task.
Recommendations
- Add instructions for importing certificates on Linux (e.g., using 'update-ca-certificates', 'certutil', or manual placement in /etc/ssl/certs).
- Include macOS steps (e.g., using Keychain Access to import certificates).
- Provide cross-platform CLI examples (such as OpenSSL commands) for certificate handling.
- Clearly indicate that the process applies to all major OSes, and structure instructions so that Windows, Linux, and macOS guidance are presented in parallel or in separate sections.
