I'm trying to figure out a way to pass variables into cURL commands (maybe this will interact with Ubuntu, or the CMD window, or something else; not totally sure).

I have some cURL commands like this:

curl -X "GET" -H "Authorization: Bearer API_Key" "https://url-plat-api/drives/my"

Now, I want to pass in my API_Key ID and run the cURL command.

Also, I have some cURL commands like this:

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer API_Key" "https://url-plat-api/identities/email/me@[email protected]"

Here, I want to pass in the API_Key and the emailID, and run the cURL command.

How can I run these cURL commands in Excel? Eventually I will select items from a ComboBox, and pass these variables into a VBA command, and run that. I can do these things very easily. How can I set up the VBA script to interact with cURL?

    Nothing really built into Excel. This question or this question might help. Commented Sep 24, 2018 at 15:48

    In addition to what @JohnColeman provided, which is probably the way to go, if you really want to use cURL, then you can write curl commands into .bat files and run those via vba. Commented Sep 24, 2018 at 16:06

    What is the end purpose and can these not be replaced with WinHTTP/XMLHTTP requests? You are familiar with these so I guess there is a reason. Commented Sep 24, 2018 at 16:10
