NAME

       CURLOPT_SSLCERTTYPE - type of client SSL certificate

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSLCERTTYPE, char *type);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  a  pointer  to  a  null-terminated  string  as  parameter.  The string should be the format of your
       certificate.

       Supported formats are "PEM" and "DER", except with Secure Transport or Schannel. OpenSSL (versions  0.9.3
       and  later),  Secure  Transport (on iOS 5 or later, or OS X 10.7 or later) and Schannel support "P12" for
       PKCS#12-encoded files.

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

DEFAULT

       "PEM"

PROTOCOLS

       This functionality affects all TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc.

       This option works only with the following TLS backends:  GnuTLS,  OpenSSL,  Schannel,  Secure  Transport,
       mbedTLS and wolfSSL

EXAMPLE

       int main(void)
       {
         CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
         if(curl) {
           CURLcode res;
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSLCERT, "client.pem");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSLCERTTYPE, "PEM");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSLKEY, "key.pem");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_KEYPASSWD, "s3cret");
           res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
           curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
         }
       }

AVAILABILITY

       Added in curl 7.9.3

RETURN VALUE

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