This works perfectly in terminal.

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer sknWtK4sRtd...." "; > exportedData.ndjson

How can I make this work with node? This doesn't save file or return error.

const { exec } = require('child_process');
    exec('curl -H "Authorization: Bearer sknWtK4sRt..." "; > mydataexported.ndjson');

I tried several solutions and curl libraries.

• node.js
• curl
• export

• from where do you run the script, the file should be saved in process.cwd() location.. – traynor Commented yesterday

I think as you should use "request" and "fs" libs instead of curl for perfect coding. Coz, you can't detect connect error or file permission and so on via curl lib.

const fs = require('fs');
const request = require('request');

// Define the URL you want to request
const url = 'https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts'; // Example URL

// Make a GET request to the URL
request(url, (error, response, body) => {
  if (error) {
    console.error('Error occurred:', error);
    return;
  }

  // Check if the request was successful (status code 200)
  if (response.statusCode === 200) {
    // Save the response data (body) to a file
    fs.writeFile('responseData.json', body, (err) => {
      if (err) {
        console.error('Error writing to file:', err);
      } else {
        console.log('Response data saved to responseData.json');
      }
    });
  } else {
    console.log('Request failed with status code:', response.statusCode);
  }
});
