Frequently Asked Questions
How are query strings parsed?
The tool splits the query string on & and parses each key=value pair using the URLSearchParams API.
Can I parse URLs with credentials?
Yes. If the URL includes a username and password (username:password@host), they are extracted and displayed.
Is any data sent to a server?
No. All parsing runs in your browser using the native URL API; nothing is transmitted.
What is the difference between relative and absolute URLs?
Absolute URLs include the protocol and host (https://example.com/path). Relative URLs are paths relative to the current page (/path or ../other). This tool requires absolute URLs.
