## Properties

| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| [ApplicationStore](https://www.traeger.de/en/docs/development/opcua/api/v2.59/opc.uafx.opccertificatestores/members#applicationstore) | Gets the certificate store which is used by the application to store its own application certificate. |
| [AutoCreateCertificate](https://www.traeger.de/en/docs/development/opcua/api/v2.59/opc.uafx.opccertificatestores/members#autocreatecertificate) | Gets or sets a value indicating whether the application certificate is to be created automatically in the case there is not a valid application certificate explicitly defined to use. |
| [PathProbings](https://www.traeger.de/en/docs/development/opcua/api/v2.59/opc.uafx.opccertificatestores/members#pathprobings)<span class="api-meta">static · since v2.7</span> | Gets a collection of [OpcPathProbing](https://www.traeger.de/en/docs/development/opcua/api/v2.59/opc.uafx.opcpathprobing/) instances evaluated to determine an appropriate path to use to store certificate files. |
| [RejectedStore](https://www.traeger.de/en/docs/development/opcua/api/v2.59/opc.uafx.opccertificatestores/members#rejectedstore) | Gets the certificate store which is used by the application to store all certificates which are not trusted and are therefore by default rejected by the application. |
| [TrustedIssuerStore](https://www.traeger.de/en/docs/development/opcua/api/v2.59/opc.uafx.opccertificatestores/members#trustedissuerstore) | Gets the certificate store which is used by the application to store all certificates of trusted issuers. |
| [TrustedPeerStore](https://www.traeger.de/en/docs/development/opcua/api/v2.59/opc.uafx.opccertificatestores/members#trustedpeerstore) | Gets the certificate store which is used by the application to store all certificates of trusted applications. |
