URL Parser
Parse a URL into protocol, host, path, query params, and hash.
About this tool
Parse a URL into protocol, host, path, query params, and hash. Turn opaque strings from network traces, devtools, or SEO audits into structured output you can act on.
Paste a full URL including protocol, host, path, query, and hash if present. Inspect protocol, hostname, pathname, search params, and hash separately. Example — API URL with query and hash: try `https://api.example.com/v1/users?active=true#meta` and expect something like `protocol: https: host: api.example.com pathname: /v1/users search: ?active=true hash: #meta`.
Invalid or protocol-relative URLs may fail depending on the browser URL parser. See also: Query String Builder, URL Encoder/Decoder, and HTTP Header Parser. Runs in your browser — nothing you paste gets uploaded.
How to use
- Paste a full URL including protocol, host, path, query, and hash if present.
- Inspect protocol, hostname, pathname, search params, and hash separately.
- Copy query keys when wiring clients or comparing staging vs production links.
- Use alongside URL Encode/Decode when parameters are percent-encoded.
Example
API URL with query and hash
Input
https://api.example.com/v1/users?active=true#meta

Limitations
- Invalid or protocol-relative URLs may fail depending on the browser URL parser.
- Does not resolve redirects or fetch the remote resource.
- Internationalized domains are shown as the browser normalizes them (often punycode).
