NAME

       CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEYTYPE - type of the proxy private key file

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

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

DESCRIPTION

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

       Pass  a pointer to a null-terminated string as parameter. The string should be the format of your private
       key. Supported formats are "PEM", "DER", "ENG" and "PROV" (the latter added in curl 8.12.0).

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

       Using this option multiple times makes the last set string override the previous ones. Set it to NULL  to
       disable its use again.

PROTOCOLS

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

       This option works only with the following TLS backends: BearSSL, OpenSSL 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_PROXY, "https://proxy");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLCERT, "client.pem");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY, "key.pem");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEYTYPE, "PEM");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_KEYPASSWD, "s3cret");
           res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
           curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
         }
       }
