### cURL

```curl
curl --ca-native https://example.com
```

#### cURL on macOS

To use a Cloudflare root certificate with cURL on macOS, [install the certificate to the operating system keychain](#macos). cURL will use the macOS root certificate by default.

#### cURL on Windows

To use a Cloudflare certificate with the version of cURL preinstalled on Windows or another version that uses the Schannel (WinSSL) backend, [install the certificate to the Windows certificate store](#windows). If you use an older or custom version of cURL built with the OpenSSL backend, you will need to [manually configure cURL to use the certificate](#curl).

#### cURL on Linux

To use a Cloudflare root certificate with cURL on Linux, [install the certificate to your distribution's certificate store](#linux). cURL will use the Linux root certificate by default.
