title: How to create a csr file for azure web app
body: <p>I need to create a csr file to give it to someone.</p>
  
  <p>The csr file is for a SSL certificate for a azure web app.</p>
  
  <p>When I google I find inconsistent information about <strong>where</strong> to generate the csr file.</p>
  
  <p>Some sources say: I have to create the csr file on the server the web app is running.</p>
  
  <p>In my case the server on azure is unknown. I can not run anything there...</p>
  
  <p>Or is it ok to create the csr on my local pc with all company data + the subject filled out with the custom domain?</p>
