Need help: How do I use curl to download a file from a URL?

9 Replies, 1550 Views

Quick note: if you’re dealing with URLs that have redirects, add `-L` to your curl command. It’ll follow the redirects and grab the file properly.

Example:
`curl -L -O https://example.com/file.zip`

Also, if you’re on macOS, curl is pre-installed, so no need to download anything extra.
