OK so the read and expand from file is now good but here is another problem:
In my script the curl command that should reach the server is -
but this is what is sent -
curl -u userpassword -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -X POST //api/add/ -d '{ "nodename": "server001", "address": "10.10.10.01", "poolname": "serverpool1", "port": "80", "lbname" : "loadbalancer01" }'
I've tried different ways for escape like \ ` and other combinations of but it's just not working.
Thanks again for any help on this.

Hi,
I'm using a for loop reading from an input file that contains files, whose path includes a variable name.
But the for loop doesn't expand the variable and therefore can't find the file.

curlopt_copypostfields
CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS(3) curl_easy_setopt options CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS(3)NAME
CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS - have libcurl copy data to POST
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS, char *data);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a char * as parameter, which should be the full data to post in a HTTP POST operation. It behaves as the CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS(3) option,
but the original data is instead copied by the library, allowing the application to overwrite the original data after setting this option.
Because data are copied, care must be taken when using this option in conjunction with CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE(3) or CURLOPT_POSTFIELD-
SIZE_LARGE(3): If the size has not been set prior to CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS(3), the data is assumed to be a zero terminated string; else
the stored size informs the library about the byte count to copy. In any case, the size must not be changed after CURLOPT_COPYPOST-
FIELDS(3), unless another CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS(3) or CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS(3) option is issued.
DEFAULT
NULL
PROTOCOLS
HTTP(S)
EXAMPLE
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
char local_buffer[1024]="data to send";
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://example.com");
/* size of the data to copy from the buffer and send in the request */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE, 12L);
/* send data from the local stack */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS, local_buffer);
curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.17.1
RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
