Copy the Policy Server Signing certificate to the SharePoint Central Administration Server

The Policy Server signing certificate that you exported from your key store on a Policy Server is required to create a trusted identity provider. This certificate lets the SharePoint claims provider verify the authentication claims (tokens) that the Policy Server sends.

Follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the directory on your Policy Server to which you exported your certificate from the central key store.
2. Locate the Policy Server signing certificate file that you exported, and then copy it to a directory on your SharePoint central administration server.
