Getting an "invalid certificate" error when using the Splunk Add-on for Microsoft Cloud Services.

[DerekB]

I'm going through the process of setting up the Splunk Add-on for Microsoft Cloud Services and when I get to the certificate piece, I constantly get the "Auto-generated but invalid" message. I've tried both custom and auto generated and it's always this error.

What can I do to fix this?

Double check your Account and/or Input names do not have any spaces in them. If they do, delete and recreate without spaces and you should be able to get this certificate to generate successfully.
