user pki-user

In FortiWeb's certificate-based Web UI login, a PKI user is the administrator that FortiWeb will authorizes his Web UI access based on his PKI certificate. With this command, you can create a PKI user for FortiWeb to verify and authorize the Web UI accesses from the user.

Before creating a PKI user, you must import the CA certificate (through FortiWeb Web UI) associated with the user to the FortiWeb. For details, see system admin-certificate ca.

After the PKI user is created, include it in an admin group through user admin-usergrp.

For information about certificate-based Web UI login, see the FortiWeb Administration Guide:

HTTPs://docs.fortinet.com/fortiweb/admin-guides

To use this command, your administrator account’s access control profile must have either w or rw permission to the admingrp area. For details, see Permissions.
