To execute a cURL request from PHP, you can use the curl_exec () function. Here's an example:



$url = 'https://example.com/api';
$ch = curl_init($url);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

$response = curl_exec($ch);

curl_close($ch);

// Process the response
echo $response;

In this example, we set the $ url variable to the URL we want to call. We then initialize a cURL session using curl_init (), passing in the URL as an argument. We then set the CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER option to true to indicate that we want to return the response as a string rather than outputting it directly.

We then execute the cURL session using curl_exec (), which sends the request to the specified URL and returns the response. After we receive the response, we close the cURL session using curl_close ().

Finally, we process the response as needed. In this example, we simply echo the response, but you could parse the response data and perform further processing based on the contents of the response.
