# kSecImportItemCertChain

Certificate list.

## Declaration

```swift
let kSecImportItemCertChain: CFString
```

## Mentioned in

Importing an Identity

## Discussion

Discussion The corresponding value is of type CFArrayRef. The array consists of SecCertificateRef objects for all the certificates in the PKCS #12 blob. This list might differ from that in the trust management object if there is more than one identity in the blob or if the blob contains extra certificates (for example, an intermediate certificate that is not yet valid but might be needed to establish validity in the near future).
