# NAME
curl_easy_getinfo - extract information from a curl handle
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *curl, CURLINFO info, ... );
~~~
# DESCRIPTION
Get the *info* kept in the *curl* handle. The third argument **MUST** be
pointing to the specific type of the used option which is documented in each
man page of the *info* option. The data is stored accordingly and can be
relied upon only if this function returns CURLE_OK. Use this function after a
performed transfer if you want to get transfer related data.
You should not free the memory returned by this function unless it is
explicitly mentioned below.

~~~
## QUEUE_TIME
CURLINFO_QUEUE_TIME_T(3). The time during which the transfer was held in a
waiting queue before it could start for real. (Added in 8.6.0)
## NAMELOOKUP
CURLINFO_NAMELOOKUP_TIME(3) and CURLINFO_NAMELOOKUP_TIME_T(3). The time it
took from the start until the name resolving was completed.
## CONNECT
CURLINFO_CONNECT_TIME(3) and CURLINFO_CONNECT_TIME_T(3). The time it took from
the start until the connect to the remote host (or proxy) was completed.
## APPCONNECT
CURLINFO_APPCONNECT_TIME(3) and CURLINFO_APPCONNECT_TIME_T(3). The time it
took from the start until the SSL connect/handshake with the remote host was
completed. (Added in 7.19.0) The latter is the integer version (measuring
microseconds). (Added in 7.60.0)
## PRETRANSFER
CURLINFO_PRETRANSFER_TIME(3) and CURLINFO_PRETRANSFER_TIME_T(3). The time it
took from the start until the file transfer is just about to begin. This
includes all pre-transfer commands and negotiations that are specific to the
particular protocol(s) involved.
## STARTTRANSFER
CURLINFO_STARTTRANSFER_TIME(3) and CURLINFO_STARTTRANSFER_TIME_T(3). The time
it took from the start until the first byte is received by libcurl.
## TOTAL
CURLINFO_TOTAL_TIME(3) and CURLINFO_TOTAL_TIME_T(3). Total time
of the previous request.
## REDIRECT
CURLINFO_REDIRECT_TIME(3) and CURLINFO_REDIRECT_TIME_T(3). The time it took
for all redirection steps include name lookup, connect, pretransfer and
transfer before final transaction was started. So, this is zero if no
redirection took place.
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode res;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://www.example.com/");
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
if(CURLE_OK == res) {
char *ct;
/* ask for the content-type */
res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_CONTENT_TYPE, &ct);
if((CURLE_OK == res) && ct)
printf("We received Content-Type: %s\n", ct);
}
/* always cleanup */
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
}
~~~
# AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.4.1
# RETURN VALUE
If the operation was successful, CURLE_OK is returned. Otherwise an
appropriate error code is returned.
