CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY(3)     Library Functions Manual	 CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY(3)

NAME
     CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY - private key file for HTTPS proxy client cert

SYNOPSIS
     #include <curl/curl.h>

     CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY, char *keyfile);

DESCRIPTION
     Pass  a pointer to a null-terminated string as parameter. The string should
     be the filename of your private key used for connecting to the HTTPS proxy.
     The default format is "PEM" and can be changed  with  CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY-
     TYPE(3).

     This  option is ignored by the Schannel backend because it expects the pri-
     vate key to be already present in the key chain or PKCS#12 file  containing
     the certificate.

     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.

DEFAULT
     NULL

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

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

EXAMPLE
     int main(void)
     {
       CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
       if(curl) {
	 CURLcode result;
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY, "https://proxy.example");
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLCERT, "client.pem");
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY, "key.pem");
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_KEYPASSWD, "s3cret");
	 result = curl_easy_perform(curl);
	 curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
       }
     }

AVAILABILITY
     Added in curl 7.52.0
