I could probably use some ASN1 library to get it from the DER Buffer but that's a little convoluted. It's possible that I'm completely missing something here.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/justablob","@type":"Person","name":"justablob"},"datePublished":"2020-10-01T20:22:19.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":9},"url":"https://github.com/3000/help/issues/3000"}
