.TH CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL 3 "August 22, 2023" "ibcurl 8.3.0" libcurl
.SH NAME
CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL \- get the last used URL
.SH SYNOPSIS

.SH 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 \fICURLOPT_URL(3)\fP.

- it gets freed when you call \fIcurl_easy_cleanup(3)\fP on the corresponding
CURL handle.

res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
if(res == CURLE_OK) {
char *url = NULL;
curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL, &url);
