The PEM format is a standard certificate format that is Base64 encoded.

An example of a PEM-format certificate is as follows:

When you create a trusted certificates list, you concatenate multiple PEM-format certificates into a single file. Line endings are auto-detected. The following example shows the format of a concatenated certificates list that contains two certificates.

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
<base64 content here>
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
<base64 content here>
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
