This task describes how to log in to a database using Contenta Web with Client Certificate Authentication.
Before you begin
You must have a public key client certificate installed in your web browser.
Procedure
- Start your web browser and specify the following URL using a fully-qualified host name:

- Depending on your browser configuration, a window may appear prompting you to select a user certificate. After selecting a valid certificate, you will be logged in automatically.
