Example:
awsCerts = /root/.agent/certs/
- The final configuration will be used in the node-red-contrib-aws-iot-hub code look likes:
keyPath : '/root/.agent/certs/YourThingName.private.key',
certPath : '/root/.agent/certs/YourThingName.cert.pem',
caPath : '/root/.agent/certs/root-CA.crt',
clientId : YourThingName,
