Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2	x509Certificate	The X.509 certificate.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Security.Cryptography.AsymmetricAlgorithm	The private asymmetric key or null if none.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
SamlCertificateException	Thrown when there's no private asymmetric key.

GetPublicAsymmetricAlgorithm(X509Certificate2)
