.SH NAME
CURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO \- path to proxy Certificate Authority (CA) bundle
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO, char *path);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
This option is for connecting to an HTTPS proxy, not an HTTPS server.

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

If \fICURLOPT_PROXY_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3)\fP is zero and you avoid verifying the
server\(aqs certificate, \fICURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO(3)\fP need not even indicate an
accessible file.

This option is by default set to the system path where libcurl\(aqs 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\(aqs 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 \fICURLINFO_CAINFO(3)\fP.
.SH DEFAULT
Built\-in system specific
.SH PROTOCOLS
This functionality affects all TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc.

All TLS backends support this option.
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode res;
    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");
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
}
.fi
.SH NOTES
For TLS backends that do not support certificate files, the
\fICURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO(3)\fP option is ignored. Refer to
https://curl.se/docs/ssl\-compared.html
.SH AVAILABILITY
Added in curl 7.52.0
.SH 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.
