- Generate and Upload Java Keystore (JKS) Certificate
Use the Java Development Kit to generate a Java Keystore (JKS) Certificate. You need a service account key in the form of a JSON file (.jks) to generate a JKS certificate. Import your certificates and private keys from a keystore to Salesforce. - Create JSON Web Token (JWT) External Credentials
The external credential represents the details of how Salesforce authenticates to an external system via an authentication protocol. To use named credentials, you must first configure an external credential. - Create Principals for JWT
After you create an external credential that uses JWT authentication, create principals for it. Use the principal to grant access to your external credential. - Create Named Credentials
Named credentials offer a declarative and secure way to store and manage the credentials needed for HTTP callouts so that Salesforce can authenticate with external APIs.
