ENTERPRISE This is an EJBCA Enterprise feature.
The service periodically downloads public keys for the configured provider(s) and updates the internal configuration accordingly. The main purpose of this service is to automatically handle provider key rollover, especially in environments where rollover may be sudden and out of control of an EJBCA administrator. The selected providers must have Public Key input method set to Provide Key Config URL and have a valid URL configured. For configuration details, see OAuth Provider Management.
