CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_TIMEVALUE, long val);

DESCRIPTION

if(curl) {
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");

/* January 1, 2020 is 1577833200 */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_TIMEVALUE, 1577833200L);

/* If-Modified-Since the above time stamp */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_TIMECONDITION, CURL_TIMECOND_IFMODSINCE);
