Can you not use that to save the cookies, and read the file for the cookies you are interested in?

The curl man page can be found here.

curlopt_cookiejar

CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR(3)					     curl_easy_setopt options					      CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR(3)

NAME

       CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR - file name to store cookies to

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, char *filename);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  a	filename  as  char  *,	zero  terminated.  This  will  make  libcurl write all internally known cookies to the specified file when
       curl_easy_cleanup(3) is called. If no cookies are known, no file will be created. Specify "-" as filename to instead have the cookies writ-
       ten to stdout. Using this option also enables cookies for this session, so if you for example follow a location it will make matching cook-
       ies get sent accordingly.

       Note that libcurl doesn't read any cookies from the cookie jar. If you want to read cookies from a file, use CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE(3).

       If the cookie jar file can't be created or written to (when the curl_easy_cleanup(3) is called), libcurl will  not  and	cannot	report	an
       error  for  this. Using CURLOPT_VERBOSE(3) or CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION(3) will get a warning to display, but that is the only visible feedback
       you get about this possibly lethal situation.

       Since 7.43.0 cookies that were imported in the Set-Cookie format without a domain name are not exported by this option.

       The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.

DEFAULT

       NULL

PROTOCOLS

       HTTP

EXAMPLE

       TODO

AVAILABILITY

       Along with HTTP

RETURN VALUE

       Returns CURLE_OK if HTTP is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
