Get "Cookie" from https site by curl

Question

I would like to have cookie of a HTTPS site. I do have credential and certificate to access given site.

If I access site from chrome/firefox then I can easily extract cookie but what is the way to have this cookie from command line by using curl,wget or similar CUI-based tools ?

Try this out:

curl -c - '<website>'

-c flag is to retrieve the cookie

curl: no URL specified! curl: try 'curl --help' or 'curl --manual' for more information – SHW May 04 '17 at 13:07
What command did you use? Can you copy and the paste the exact command? – ryekayo May 04 '17 at 13:08
I used the same command as you mentioned by replacing '' by desired URL. – SHW May 04 '17 at 13:10
I made a typo in my answer.. Just updated – ryekayo May 04 '17 at 13:11
I tried that too. Then message appears as "Object moved" – SHW May 04 '17 at 13:13
Can i try testing with the URL your are plugging in? Or is this a private site? – ryekayo May 04 '17 at 13:15
This is private site. Or more precisely, it's in LAN only. – SHW May 04 '17 at 13:16
Ok, I am testing google's site. I am making sure to plug in http and www in front of google.com – ryekayo May 04 '17 at 13:18
