If you want to execute a cURL command on the Terminal and want to capture the result of the request to a file, you can do that in the following ways.
Option 1: Using --output (-o) flag
Example:curl -o output.txt https://code2care.org
or,
curl --output output.txt https://code2care.org
![cURL Request Output to a file using -o option Example cURL Request Output to a file using -o option Example](https://code2care.org/pages/capture-curl-request-output-to-a-file/images/cURL Request Output to a file using -o option Example.jpg)
Option 2: Redirect Output using > redirection operator
Example:curl https://code2care.org > curl_output.txt
Use >> if you want to append to the same file.
curl https://code2care.org >> curl_output.txt
