+h3(#ca_root_certificate). Install root certificate
+
+Arvados uses SSL to encrypt communications. Its UI uses AJAX which will silently fail if the certificate is not valid or signed by an unknown Certification Authority.
+
+For this reason, the @arvados-formula@ has a helper state to create a root certificate to authorize Arvados services. The @provision.sh@ script will leave a copy of the generated CA's certificate (@arvados-snakeoil-ca.pem@) in the script's directory so you can add it to your workstation.
+
+Installing the root certificate into your web browser will prevent security errors when accessing Arvados services with your web browser.
+
+# Go to the certificate manager in your browser.
+#* In Chrome, this can be found under "Settings → Advanced → Manage Certificates" or by entering @chrome://settings/certificates@ in the URL bar.
+#* In Firefox, this can be found under "Preferences → Privacy & Security" or entering @about:preferences#privacy@ in the URL bar and then choosing "View Certificates...".
+# Select the "Authorities" tab, then press the "Import" button. Choose @arvados-snakeoil-ca.pem@
+
+The certificate will be added under the "Arvados Formula".
+
+To access your Arvados instance using command line clients (such as arv-get and arv-put) without security errors, install the certificate into the OS certificate storage.
