NAME

       CURLOPT_SSLCERT - set SSL client certificate

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSLCERT, char *cert);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  a  pointer  to  a  zero  terminated string as parameter. The string should be the file name of your
       client certificate. The default format is "P12" on Secure Transport and "PEM" on other engines,  and  can
       be changed with CURLOPT_SSLCERTTYPE(3).

       With  NSS  or Secure Transport, this can also be the nickname of the certificate you wish to authenticate
       with as it is named in the security database. If you want to use  a  file  from  the  current  directory,
       please precede it with "./" prefix, in order to avoid confusion with a nickname.

       When   using   a  client  certificate,  you  most  likely  also  need  to  provide  a  private  key  with
       CURLOPT_SSLKEY(3).

       The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.

DEFAULT

       NULL

PROTOCOLS

       All TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc.

EXAMPLE

       CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
       if(curl) {
         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSLCERT, "client.pem");
         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSLKEY, "key.pem");
         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_KEYPASSWD, "s3cret");
         ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
         curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
       }

AVAILABILITY

RETURN VALUE

       Returns CURLE_OK if TLS enabled,  CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION  if  not,  or  CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY  if  there  was
       insufficient heap space.
