CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLVERSION(3)

NAME
CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLVERSION - preferred HTTPS proxy TLS version

SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLVERSION,
                          long version);

DESCRIPTION
Pass a long as parameter to control which version of SSL/TLS to attempt to use when connecting to an HTTPS proxy. Use one of the available defines for this purpose. The available options are:

CURL_SSLVERSION_DEFAULT
    The default action. This attempts to figure out the remote SSL protocol version.

CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1
    TLSv1.x

CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_0
    TLSv1.0

CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_1
    TLSv1.1

CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_2
    TLSv1.2

CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_3
    TLSv1.3

The maximum TLS version can be set by using one of the CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_ macros below. It is also possible to OR one of the CURL_SSLVERSION_ macros with one of the CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_ macros. The MAX macros are not supported for wolfSSL.

CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_DEFAULT
    The flag defines the maximum supported TLS version as TLSv1.2, or the default value from the SSL library. (Added in 7.54.0)

CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_TLSv1_0
    The flag defines maximum supported TLS version as TLSv1.0. (Added in 7.54.0)

CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_TLSv1_1
    The flag defines maximum supported TLS version as TLSv1.1. (Added in 7.54.0)

CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_TLSv1_2
    The flag defines maximum supported TLS version as TLSv1.2. (Added in 7.54.0)

CURL_SSLVERSION_MAX_TLSv1_3
    The flag defines maximum supported TLS version as TLSv1.3. (Added in 7.54.0)

In versions of curl prior to 7.54 the CURL_SSLVERSION_TLS options were documented to allow only the specified TLS version, but behavior was inconsistent depending on the TLS library.

DEFAULT
CURL_SSLVERSION_DEFAULT

PROTOCOLS
This functionality affects all TLS based protocols: HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS etc. All TLS backends support this option.

EXAMPLE
int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
    /* ask libcurl to use TLS version 1.0 or later */
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSLVERSION, (long)CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1);
    /* Perform the request */
    curl_easy_perform(curl);
  }
}

AVAILABILITY
Added in curl 7.52.0

RETURN VALUE
curl_easy_setopt(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error. CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see libcurl-errors(3).
