The `client.get(...)` method and other request methods *do not* support changing the SSL settings on a per-request basis. If you need different SSL settings in different cases you should use more that one client instance, with different settings on each. Each client will then be using an isolated connection pool with a specific fixed SSL configuration on all connections within that pool.
### Client Side Certificates
You can also specify a local cert to use as a client-side certificate, either a path to an SSL certificate file, or two-tuple of (certificate file, key file), or a three-tuple of (certificate file, key file, password)
```python
import httpx
r = httpx.get("https://example.org", cert="path/to/client.pem")
```
Alternatively,
```pycon
>>> cert = ("path/to/client.pem", "path/to/client.key")
>>> httpx.get("https://example.org", cert=cert)
<Response [200 OK]>
```
or
```pycon
>>> cert = ("path/to/client.pem", "path/to/client.key", "password")
>>> httpx.get("https://example.org", cert=cert)
<Response [200 OK]>
```
### Making HTTPS requests to a local server
When making requests to local servers, such as a development server running on `localhost`, you will typically be using unencrypted HTTP connections.
