Description

When your organization runs GMUS and makes a REST call to run the Scenario without an Offline Certificate, then GMUS will make a validation call to the Web App before Executing the Scenario. This call is made to ensure that the user profile is valid and enabled in GenRocket. 


If you run the GMUS on a restricted network server, online validation will not be possible. In these instances, you must use the GMUS Offline Certificate to validate the user profile locally on your computer.

Note: You do not need to use a GMUS offline certificate if you are connected to the Internet in a non-secure/corporate environment. 


How Does the Offline Certificate Work?

  • Each GMUS offline certificate is specific to a GenRocket Organization and Web App.
  • Each GMUS offline certificate lasts for 24 hours.
  • After 24 hours, you must download a new GMUS offline certificate and place it in your .genrocket directory.


How to Download the GMUS Offline Certificate

Complete the following steps to download a GMUS offline certificate:
 

Step 1 - Download the GMUS Offline Certificate

  • Expand the Organization Menu in the Menu Bar (contains Organization Name and Your Name).

  • Click on the My Organization option.


  • Scroll down and view Applications.

  • Click the Download Certificate button in the Offline Certificate column for the application.


    Note: You will also need to download the offline certificate located within the Resources pane of the Project Dashboard. For more information, please see this page: Using an Offline Certificate for Corporate Environments.


Step 2 - Place the GMUS Offline Certificate into your .genrocket Folder

  • Navigate to the directory where the GMUS offline certificate was downloaded. This will typically be your Downloads folder.
