Thanks! That's helpful. It looks like curl is waiting for the request body. Since this API call doesn't require one, you need to tell curl that, like this:

 

curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_POST, 1L);
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE, 0);

 

Or, you can send the JSON "null" in the body instead:

headers = curl_slist_append(headers, "Content-Type: application/json");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "null");

Many Thanks!

It's all ok now!

we add two lines code

       headers = curl_slist_append(headers, "Content-Type: ");

      curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE, 0);
