.SH NAME
CURLINFO_COOKIELIST \- get all known cookies
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_COOKIELIST,
                           struct curl_slist **cookies);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a \(aqstruct curl_slist *\(aq to receive a linked\-list of all
cookies curl knows (expired ones, too). Do not forget to call
\fIcurl_slist_free_all(3)\fP on the list after it has been used. If there are no
cookies (cookies for the handle have not been enabled or simply none have been
received) the \(aqstruct curl_slist *\(aq is made a NULL pointer.

Since 7.43.0 cookies that were imported in the Set\-Cookie format without a
domain name are not exported by this option.
.SH PROTOCOLS
This functionality affects http only
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode res;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");

    /* enable the cookie engine */
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, "");

    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);

    if(!res) {
      /* extract all known cookies */
      struct curl_slist *cookies = NULL;
      res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_COOKIELIST, &cookies);
      if(!res && cookies) {
        /* a linked list of cookies in cookie file format */
        struct curl_slist *each = cookies;
        while(each) {
          printf("%s\\n", each->data);
          each = each->next;
        }
        /* we must free these cookies when we are done */
        curl_slist_free_all(cookies);
      }
    }
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
