PHP Post Data To Another Website Using cURL

We are using PHP with the help of CURL to post data to another website. In order to do this you should be knowing the URL to which you should post the request, The fields used in the POST page like here for example I have used fields like “firstname”, “lastname” and “email”.

Once the data is posted. We can even display the return data using the curl_exec function. Please find the code below and I have tried to explain all the variables used here.

<?php
$urltopost = "http://mywebsite.com/post.php";
$datatopost = array ("firstname" => "James",
"lastname" => "Anderson","email" => "[email protected]",);
 $ch = curl_init ($urltopost);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $datatopost);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$returndata = curl_exec ($ch);
?>

$urltopost
The url where you want to post your data to

$datatopost
The post data as an associative array. The keys are the post variables

$ch = curl_init ($urltopost);
Initializes cURL

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
Tells cURL that we want to send post data

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $datatopost);
Tells cURL what are post data is

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
Tells cURL to return the output of the post

$returndata = curl_exec ($ch);
Executes the cURL and saves theoutput in $returndata

Thanks!!! 🙂
