📖 What is this tool?
URL Parser breaks any URL into its individual components — protocol, hostname, port, path, query parameters and fragment. Instantly understand the structure of complex URLs and extract specific parts for debugging or development.
💡 Example
Input
https://api.example.com:8080/users?page=1&limit=10#results
Output
Protocol: https
Host: api.example.com:8080
Path: /users
Query: page=1, limit=10
Hash: #results
🛠️ Common Use Cases
- Debug complex query string parameters
- Extract hostname from a full URL
- Parse redirect URLs for analysis
- Understand API endpoint structure
- Validate URL format and components
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
What are query parameters? ▾
Query parameters are key-value pairs appended to a URL after a ? symbol. For example: ?page=1&sort=asc passes "page" and "sort" values to the server or application.
What is the difference between hostname and host? ▾
Hostname is just the domain name (example.com). Host includes the port if non-standard (example.com:8080). Most URLs use default ports (80 for HTTP, 443 for HTTPS) which are omitted.
What is a URL fragment (#)? ▾
The fragment (hash) identifies a specific section within a page. It's processed by the browser only — it's never sent to the server. Common in single-page applications for routing.
🔒
Your data stays private. All processing happens entirely in your browser. Nothing is ever sent to our servers. You can use this tool offline after the page loads.
