NAME

       CURLINFO_REDIRECT_URL - get the URL a redirect would go to

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_REDIRECT_URL, char **urlp);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  a  pointer  to a char pointer to receive the URL a redirect would take you to if you
       would enable CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION(3). This can come handy if you think using the  built-
       in  libcurl  redirect logic is not good enough for you but you would still prefer to avoid
       implementing all the magic of figuring out the new URL.

       This URL is also set if the CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS(3) limit  prevented  a  redirect  to  happen
       (since 7.54.1).

PROTOCOLS

       HTTP(S)

EXAMPLE

       int main(void)
       {
         CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
         if(curl) {
           CURLcode res;
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
           res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
           if(res == CURLE_OK) {
             char *url = NULL;
             curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_REDIRECT_URL, &url);
             if(url)
               printf("Redirect to: %s\n", url);
           }
           curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
         }
       }
