# API Gateway Client Certificate

An API Gateway Client Certificate in AWS is a resource that provides a client-side SSL/TLS certificate for authenticating requests to your API. It is typically used when enabling mutual TLS between clients and API Gateway, ensuring secure communication by verifying both the client and the server.
