I need to create a csr file to give it to someone.

The csr file is for a SSL certificate for a azure web app.

When I google I find inconsistent information about where to generate the csr file.

Some sources say: I have to create the csr file on the server the web app is running.

In my case the server on azure is unknown. I can not run anything there...

Or is it ok to create the csr on my local pc with all company data + the subject filled out with the custom domain?
