So I had detailed reply written out, but the forum ate it.
The TL;DR version is:
1. There is no such thing as a base-64 PCKS12 file. Base-64 representations of certificates are, by definiton, PEM format.
2. After wasting hours on "crypto cert n import pkcs12", I am convinced that either the feature is broken, or it is so misdocumented that I have no hope of getting it to work. I'm going to write this off as a can't-fix.
After a bit of trial and error I was able to use the function: 1- Generate CSR and private key, openssl generate the private key as PKCS8 2- Generate Cert from the CSR in base64 2- Convert the private key from PKCS8 to PKCS1 (RSA), with openssl: openssl rsa -in private.key -out private_rsa.key
3- Then on the import pkcs12 command past the cert base64 followed right after by the private key in the PKCS1 format then the line with the (.) and enter
