URL Parser
Parse and break down web addresses into scheme, hostname, port, path, query parameters, and fragments online.
Run tool
The URL Parser breaks down web addresses into structured components for inspection, debugging, and integration. You can paste any full or relative web address into the input field to inspect its scheme, host, port, path, raw query string, and fragment. The tool also extracts query parameters into key-value pairs, grouping multiple values under the same parameter key when repeated query names appear in the address. If credentials like usernames and passwords exist within the authority segment, the parser identifies the username and masks the password with three asterisks for cleaner review. This parser processes your string directly as plain text without making external network requests or fetching remote web pages. When you leave the input empty, the default sample URL illustrates the standard component structure. Some malformed strings may cause parsing to fail, so make sure your text follows standard web address syntax.
Instructions
- Enter or paste the address you want to analyze into the URL field.
- Run the tool to parse the string into its structural parts.
- Review the resulting breakdown, including protocol, host, path, parameters, and fragment.
Examples
- Paste https://example.com/path?q=hello&lang=en#section to view scheme https, host example.com, path /path, query parameters q and lang, and fragment section.
- Paste http://user:pass@example.com:8080/api/v1?tag=news&tag=tech to view port 8080, username user, masked password ***, and the repeated tag query parameter list.
FAQ
Does this tool visit or check the live destination of the URL?
No. The tool parses the provided text directly into its syntactic parts and does not make network requests or fetch webpage content.
How are passwords in URLs handled?
When an address includes credentials, the parser identifies the username and replaces non-empty password values with asterisks.
How does the tool handle repeated query parameters?
If a query parameter name appears multiple times in the query string, the tool collects all values under that single parameter name.
What happens if the input is left blank?
If you run the tool with an empty input, it parses the default sample URL.
