URL Parser — Parse & Analyze URLs Online, Free
Parse any URL into its components — scheme, host, port, path, query parameters, and fragment. Server-side, no signup, free.
Parsed on our server — your URL is never stored or logged.
Server-side parsing — results are computed on our server, not in your browser. Works with arbitrarily long URLs.

Frequently asked questions
Is URL parsing done server-side?
Yes. Your URL is sent to our server, parsed using PHP's built-in parse_url() and parse_str() functions, and the structured result is returned. Nothing runs client-side.
What components does the URL Parser extract?
The parser extracts scheme (protocol), host, subdomain, port, path, query parameters (as individual key-value pairs), and fragment (hash). Absent components show an em-dash.
What happens to malformed or invalid URLs?
If the URL cannot be parsed, the tool shows an error message asking you to enter a valid URL starting with http://, https://, or another scheme.
How are query parameters shown?
Each query parameter is shown as a separate key=value pair, with the key highlighted in orange. If there are no query parameters, the field shows "— (none)".
Is my URL stored or logged?
No. Your URL is processed on the server and the result is returned immediately. Nothing is stored or logged between requests.
Does the URL Parser run in the browser or on the server?
It runs on AT USE servers via PHP (parse_url + parse_str). Your URL is sent to the server, parsed, and the result returned — nothing is stored or logged. Works with URLs of any length.
