# NAME
CURLOPT_SSLCERT - SSL client certificate
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#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 filename 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 expression to a
certificate store. (You can import *PFX* to a store first). You can use
"\<store location\>\\\<store name\>\\\<thumbprint\>" to refer to a certificate
in the system certificates store, for example,
**"CurrentUser\\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**, **LocalMachineEnterprise**. 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
# PROTOCOLS
All TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc.
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
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_SSLKEY, "key.pem");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_KEYPASSWD, "s3cret");
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
}

# AVAILABILITY
If built TLS enabled.
# RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if TLS enabled, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or
