How to Install an SSL Certificate on the FM Server 17 Admin Console

What about installing a certificate from a provider not on FileMaker's approved list? This can be cheap, but is at your own risk. Or maybe you want to use neither Claus's tool, nor the FileMaker API. This FileMaker Community article will take you through the process:

You have FileMaker Server 17, or you're about to install it, but where have all those missing commands gone from the console? They've moved into the API, but don't worry, Claus Lavendt of Data Manix has provided us all, free of charge and unlocked, a brilliant tool built in FileMaker.
