+# NAME
+
+CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL - get the last used URL
+
+# SYNOPSIS
+
+~~~c
+#include <curl/curl.h>
+
+CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL, char **urlp);
+~~~
+
+# DESCRIPTION
+
+Pass in a pointer to a char pointer and get the last used effective URL.
+
+In cases when you have asked libcurl to follow redirects, it may not be the same
+value you set with CURLOPT_URL(3).
+
+The **urlp** pointer is NULL or points to private memory. You MUST NOT free
+- it gets freed when you call curl_easy_cleanup(3) on the corresponding
+CURL handle.

+    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
+    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1L);
+    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
+    if(res == CURLE_OK) {
+      char *url = NULL;
+      curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL, &url);
