+.SH NAME
+curl_mime_filedata - set a mime part's body data from a file contents
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B #include <curl/curl.h>
+.sp
+.BI "CURLcode curl_mime_filedata(curl_mimepart * " part ,
+.BI " const char * " filename ");"
+.ad
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+curl_mime_filedata() sets a mime part's body content from the named file's
+contents.
+
+\fIpart\fP is the part's to assign contents to.
+\fIfilename\fP points to the nul-terminated file's path name. The pointer can
+be NULL to detach previous part contents settings.
+If \fIfilename\fP is "-", part contents data will be read from stdin.
+Filename storage can be safely be reused after this call.
+
+As a side effect, the part's remote file name is set to the base name of the
+given \fIfilename\fP if it is a valid named file. This can be undone or
+overriden by a subsequent call to \fIcurl_mime_filename\fP().
+
+Setting a part's contents twice is valid: only the value set by the last call
+is retained.
+
+.SH AVAILABILITY
+As long as at least one of HTTP, SMTP or IMAP is enabled. Added in 7.56.0.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+CURLE_OK or a CURL error code upon failure.
