CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL(3) curl_easy_getinfo options CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL(3) NAME CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL - get the last used URL SYNOPSIS #include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL, char **urlp); DESCRIPTION Pass in a pointer to a char pointer and get the last used effective URL. In cases when you have asked libcurl to follow redirects, it may not be the same value you set with CURLOPT_URL(3). The urlp pointer will be NULL or pointing to private memory you MUST NOT free - it gets freed when you call curl_easy_cleanup(3) on the cor- responding CURL handle.
