Error when trying to sign my custom connector

[paocohe]

Hi everyone!

I'm trying to self-sign my custom connector but I have an error, which led me to a couple of questions...

Let me explain, I dowloanded MakePQX and get an pfx file, but when trying to apply ">MakePQX sign "C:\Users\cpope\OneDrive\Documents\Power BI Desktop\Custom Connectors\HelloWorldSigned.pqx" --certificate ContosoTestCertificate.pfx --password password" I'm facing this error

I double checked my route and everything was right. But then when reading more about what I'm trying to achive I found that I guess this method is for connectors that already have a certificate of an authority (?) i guess I can purchase one of those.

So my questions are if this method can work for self-signed custom connectors? and if that's the case did anyone knows what i'm doing wrong? if it's not the right procedure, could anyone let me a link or something to the right one?

Thanks in advance.

Hi, yes! 

I ended up signing it with another tool. Thanks
