Hi All,

I was developing a chrome packaged app.
Does anyone have any idea, How can I embed/import CA root certificate(without user interaction means programatically) into app, so that app can make HTTPS request.

Thanks,
Adarsh

Unless you are talking about Chrome OS in enterprise environments, I do not think you can manipulate Certificate Authorities using Chrome proper (Chrome application or not).

Thanks for the response,
My app is running in Windows and Mac.
I have CA root certificate. I was trying to include this root certificate programatically to browser's "Trusted root certification authorities".

Chrome uses the root list of the operating system and at least on Windows, the operating system itself does not let you add a certificate authority programmatically (without a user confirmation), as far as I know.

Sorry.
