CURLOPT_NOPROGRESS(3) Library Functions Manual CURLOPT_NOPROGRESS(3)

CURLOPT_NOPROGRESS - switch off the progress meter

#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_NOPROGRESS, long onoff);

If onoff is to 1, it tells the library to shut off the progress meter completely for requests done with this handle. It also prevents the CURLOPT_XFERINFOFUNCTION(3) or CURLOPT_PROGRESSFUNCTION(3) from getting called.

1, meaning it normally runs without a progress meter.

This functionality affects all supported protocols

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
    /* enable progress meter */
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_NOPROGRESS, 0L);
    /* Perform the request */
    curl_easy_perform(curl);
  }
}
