# cURL

[cURL](https://curl.haxx.se/) - is a command line tool allowing you to interact with services via different protocols with URL syntax. It is widely used today, including sending HTTP requests from the command line. TestMace allows you to import the curl command with parameters into a [RequestStep](/master/node-types/request-step.md) node request.

There are two ways to import a request from cURL:

* import from the project context menu: **Import -> cURL**;
* import from the [Folder](/master/node-types/folder.md) or [Project](/master/node-types/project.md) node context menu: **Import** -> **cURL.**

You'll see the next dialog:

Here you need to set the new [RequestStep](/master/node-types/request-step.md) node name and the import command.

Take a look at how a request is copied from the browser requests list as cURL:

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.testmace.com/master/other-features/import/curl.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
