Make base64-encoded SHA-256 digest of the subjectPublicKeyInfo from local certificate file in PEM format (certificate.pem):

openssl x509 -inform pem -pubkey -noout < certificate.pem | openssl pkey -pubin -outform der | openssl dgst -sha256 -binary | base64

Make base64-encoded SHA-256 digest of the subjectPublicKeyInfo from local certificate file in DER format (certificate.crt):

openssl x509 -inform der -pubkey -noout < certificate.crt | openssl pkey -pubin -outform der | openssl dgst -sha256 -binary | base64

Make base64-encoded SHA-256 digest of the subjectPublicKeyInfo from local CSR file in PEM format (csr.pem):

openssl req -inform pem -pubkey -noout < csr.pem | openssl pkey -pubin -outform der | openssl dgst -sha256 -binary | base64
