KeyChain MAC/iOS

[angelru]

in xamarin I can access the keychain through SecRecord, in MAUI I don't see anything...

You can use SecureStorage it's an abstraction over secure storages on various platforms. Previously it was available in Xamarin.Essentials but it's now built-in to MAUI. On iOS and macOS it uses keychain to store values:
https://github.com/dotnet/maui/blob/main/src/Essentials/src/SecureStorage/SecureStorage.ios.tvos.watchos.macos.cs

await SecureStorage.SetAsync("secret-key", "secret");
var secret= await SecureStorage.GetAsync("secret-key");

afaik the documentation is still valid:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/essentials/secure-storage?tabs=ios

I mean to recover the certificates installed on a MAC/iOS

    //        SecRecord rec = new SecRecord(SecKind.Certificate);
    //        SecStatusCode code;
    //        SecKeyChain.QueryAsRecord(rec, out code);
    //        NSData[] certs = SecKeyChain.QueryAsData(rec, false, 999, out code);

@nor0x any idea why the code above doesn't return certs on macOS? I have them installed (pfx)

@angelru any solution for this get the access from keychain for Mac Catalyst.

@Sgudipu I haven't tried it in a while, maccatalyst can't seem to access the keychain, I had to go back to the old xamarin macos
