Mayur Sharma:
Can someone please correct/provide right syntax for writing the request field in the CSR file only, I do not want to decode outside and then copy-paste in request field

Below formats are not working

request: ${cat /root/akshay.csr | base64 | tr -d ‘\n’}
request: ${cat /root/akshay.csr | base64 | tr -d “\n”}

#2

Swaminathan V:
Please try with round brackets () instead of curly brackets {}
request: $(cat /root/akshay.csr | base64 | tr -d “\n”)
