Note: Windows push certificate is a purchased SSL certificate, which is converted into correct format to upload on Volt MX Foundry Engagement Services. Windows Secret is an associated secret key that contains strings used for authentication with Volt MX Foundry Engagement Services APIs. It is used for authentication on the client side during registration.

Note: Windows SID is a security identifier that is a unique, immutable identifier of a user, user group, or other security principals. A security principal has a single SID for life, and all properties of the principal, including its name, are associated with the SID. This design allows a principal to be renamed (for example, from "John" to "Jane") without affecting the security attributes of objects that refer to the principal.
