How to Get HTTP status code with curl post

To get only the http_code you could try:

curl -s -o /dev/null --head -w "%{http_code}" -X POST "https://httpbin.org/post"

you can read/remember it like:

• -s Silent mode
• -o Write output to /dev/null
• --head Get headers only
• -w "%{http_code}" write out the HTTP Status code

To get all the headers from your request try:

curl -I -X POST "https://httpbin.org/post"

It will return something like:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
