What this tool does
Inspect the structure of a URL and view its individual query parameters without manually splitting strings. The parser uses the browser’s URL implementation for standards-aware handling.
URLs can contain authentication data, ports, encoded path segments, repeated query parameters and fragments. Seeing each component separately is useful for debugging tracking links, redirects and API requests. Be careful with links that contain access tokens or other credentials.
Useful for
- Inspect tracking URLs and campaign parameters.
- Debug redirects or unexpected query strings.
- Understand which part of a URL is the host, path, query or fragment.
How to use it
- Paste a complete URL including its scheme, such as https://.
- Run the parser.
- Review the normalized components and parameter table.
- Copy only the component you need.
Practical tips
- Treat URLs containing tokens as sensitive.
- A fragment after # is normally handled client-side and is not sent in the HTTP request.
- Repeated query keys can be valid, so review all values.
- The parser does not visit or request the URL.
Frequently asked questions
Does ToolsDiary open the URL I paste?
No. The browser parses the string locally; the destination is not contacted.
Why is the hostname different from the full host?
The host can include a port, while hostname is the domain or IP portion without the port.
Can I parse relative URLs?
The tool expects a complete absolute URL so the result is unambiguous.
