How to use cURL to send Cookies?

I read that Send cookies with curl works, but not for me.

I have a REST endpoint as:

You can refer to https://curl.haxx.se/docs/http-cookies.html for a complete tutorial of how to work with cookies. You can use

curl -c /path/to/cookiefile http://yourhost/

to write to a cookie file and start engine and to use cookie you can use

curl -b /path/to/cookiefile  http://yourhost/

to read cookies from and start the cookie engine, or if it isn't a file it will pass on the given string.
