URL Parser
Break any URL into protocol, hostname, port, path, query string and hash. Lists all query parameters as key-value pairs for quick inspection.
About This Tool
QuickKit URL Parser breaks any URL into its constituent parts — protocol, hostname, port, pathname, query string and hash — using the browser's native URL API. Query parameters are listed individually as key-value pairs so you can inspect them without manually decoding percent-encoded strings.
Features
- ✓Instant Parsing — URL is parsed as you type — no submit button needed.
- ✓All URL Components — Displays protocol, hostname, port, pathname, search string and hash fragment.
- ✓Query Parameter Table — Each query parameter is listed as a separate key-value row, automatically decoded.
- ✓Native URL API — Uses the browser's built-in URL constructor — same parsing behaviour as modern browsers.
- ✓Validation — Shows a clear error message if the input cannot be parsed as a valid URL.
FAQ
- Why do I need to include the protocol?
- The URL API requires a scheme (http://, https://, etc.) to parse correctly. Relative paths without a scheme are not valid absolute URLs.
- Are percent-encoded characters decoded?
- Yes. Query parameter values are decoded using the URLSearchParams API, so %20 appears as a space and similar encodings are resolved.
- What happens if there is no port in the URL?
- If no explicit port is set, the port field shows "(default)" to indicate the protocol's default port is used (80 for HTTP, 443 for HTTPS).
- Can I parse data: or blob: URLs?
- The URL API can parse data: and blob: URLs, but their structure differs from HTTP URLs — pathname and hostname fields may be empty or unexpected.
