URL Parser

What does URL Parser do?

URL Parser breaks down a URL into its individual components: protocol, hostname, port, path, query parameters, and hash fragment. It helps you understand and analyze the structure of any URL.

What is it used for?

• Debugging: Analyze URLs to find issues with query parameters or paths
• API Development: Extract and verify endpoint paths and parameters
• SEO Analysis: Check URL structure for optimization opportunities
• Security Audits: Inspect URLs for sensitive data exposure
• Web Scraping: Understand URL patterns for data extraction

URL Components Explained

• Protocol: http:, https:, ftp:, etc.
• Host: Domain name with port (example.com:8080)
• Hostname: Domain name only (example.com)
• Port: Network port number (80, 443, 8080)
• Pathname: Path after domain (/path/to/page)
• Search: Query string (?key=value)
• Hash: Fragment identifier (#section)

How it works

Enter any URL and click Parse. The tool uses the browser's native URL API to parse and extract all components. Query parameters are displayed in a table for easy inspection. All processing happens locally—your URLs are never sent to any server.
