CURLOPT_SSLCERT(3)                  libcurl                 CURLOPT_SSLCERT(3)

NAME
       CURLOPT_SSLCERT - SSL client certificate

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curl/curl.h>

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

DESCRIPTION
       Pass  a  pointer  to  a null-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 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.

       (Schannel  only) Client certificates can be specified by a path expres-
       sion to a certificate store. (You can import PFX to a store first). You
       can use "<store location>\<store name>\<thumbprint>" to refer to a cer-
       tificate in  the  system  certificates  store,  for  example,  "Curren-
       tUser\MY\934a7ac6f8a5d579285a74fa".  The  thumbprint is usually a SHA-1
       hex string which you can see in certificate  details.  Following  store
       locations  are  supported:  CurrentUser,  LocalMachine, CurrentService,
       Services, CurrentUserGroupPolicy, LocalMachineGroupPolicy,  LocalMachi-
       neEnterprise.   Schannel  also  support  P12 certificate file, with the
       string "P12" specified with CURLOPT_SSLCERTTYPE(3).

       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

         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);
       }
