strongpass | Generate random passwords | Generator Utils library

The defined attributes for the subject and issuer fields in a certificate are defined by ITU X.520.

There is no "optional company name" item defined.

I think what you are referring to is the "Organization Name" attribute type. This is defined with the LDAP-NAME of "O".

In you example:

"/C=GB/ST=London/L=London/O=XYZ/OU=XYZ UK/CN=$domain/emailAddress=some@some.com /challengePassword=strongpass/optionalCompanyName=PROBLEM"

It's the "/O=XYZ" so the "Organization" (or company name) is "XYZ".

Update:

After some reading I see where you are coming from as I never some across this before:

"An optional company name:" is "unstructuredName".

"unstructuredName" and "challengePassword" is part of a certificate request only. So it's NOT part of the subject. So you shouldn't use "/challengePassword=strongpass" in your subject line.

You can see this in a default openssl.conf file:

To answer the question, "Should I be using if/else here" - Sure. It is perfectly acceptable to use a if/else statement within a switch case statement.

The problem was server was not recognizing the "templates" folder for some kind of reason so i specify it in the app init

As I mentioned that if we want to create servicePrincipal then the resource should be http://graph.windows.net or https://graph.microsoft.com.

So we need to add the permisson to operate the Azure AD Graph API or Microsoft Graph API.

And don't forget Grant permission.

I test it with Azure Active Directory API. I works correctly on my side.
