+.SH NAME
+CURLOPT_AWS_SIGV4 \- V4 signature
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+#include <curl/curl.h>
+
+CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_AWS_SIGV4,
+ char *providers_infos);
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+provides AWS V4 signature authentication on HTTPS header
+
+The provider argument is a string that is merged to some authentication
+parameters use by the algorithm.
+It's used by "Algorithm", "date", "request type", "signed headers" arguments,
+
+NOTE: This call set CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH to CURLAUTH_AWS_SIGV4.
+Calling CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH with CURLAUTH_AWS_SIGV4 is the same as calling
+this with "aws:amz" in paramater.
+
+Example with "Test:Try", when curl will do the algorithm, it will Generate:
+"TEST-HMAC-SHA256" for "Algorithm"
+"x-try-date" and "X-Try-Date" for "date"
+"test4_request" for "request type"
+"SignedHeaders=content-type;host;x-try-date" for "signed headers"
+
+If you use just "test", instead of "test:try",
+test will be use for every strings generated
+
+.SH DEFAULT
+NULL
+.SH PROTOCOLS
