CURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO(3)             libcurl            CURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO(3)

NAME
       CURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO - path to proxy Certificate Authority (CA) bundle

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO, char *path);

DESCRIPTION
       This option is for connecting to an HTTPS proxy, not an HTTPS server.

       Pass  a char * to a null-terminated string naming a file holding one or
       more certificates to verify the HTTPS proxy with.

       If CURLOPT_PROXY_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3) is zero and you avoid verifying  the
       server's certificate, CURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO(3) need not even indicate an
       accessible file.

       This option is by default set to the system  path  where  libcurl's  CA
       certificate  bundle  is  assumed  to be stored, as established at build
       time.

       (iOS and macOS only) If curl is built against  Secure  Transport,  then
       this  option  is  supported  for  backward compatibility with other SSL
       engines, but it should not be set. If the option is not set, then  curl
       uses  the  certificates  in  the system and user Keychain to verify the
       peer, which is the preferred method of verifying the peer's certificate
       chain.

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

       The default value for this can be figured out with CURLINFO_CAINFO(3).

DEFAULT
       Built-in system specific

PROTOCOLS
       Used with HTTPS proxy

EXAMPLE
       CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
       if(curl) {
         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
         /* using an HTTPS proxy */
         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY, "https://localhost:443");
         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO, "/etc/certs/cabundle.pem");
         ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
         curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
       }

AVAILABILITY
       Added in 7.52.0

       For TLS backends that  do  not  support  certificate  files,  the  CUR-
       LOPT_PROXY_CAINFO(3)      option      is      ignored.     Refer     to
       https://curl.se/docs/ssl-compared.html

RETURN VALUE
       Returns CURLE_OK if the option is  supported,  CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION  if
       not, or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
