Enter a URL below to instantly break it down into its protocol, host, path, query parameters, and fragment - entirely in your browser.

What are the parts of a URL?

A URL is made of a protocol (https:), a host (www.example.com), an optional port, a path (/search), a query string of parameters (?q=hello&page=2) and a fragment (#results). This parser breaks any URL into those parts and lists each query parameter, right in your browser.

How to parse a URL

  1. Paste a full URL into the box above.
  2. Click Parse URL.
  3. Read the protocol, host, path, fragment and each query parameter.
  4. Use it to debug tracking parameters (utm_*) or check that a link carries the values you expect.

Related checks

The parser uses the browser's standard URL implementation - the same one used when you follow a link - to split a URL into its protocol, hostname, port, path, query string and fragment, and lists every query parameter with its decoded value. It is handy for inspecting tracking parameters such as utm_source, redirect targets embedded inside another URL, and API endpoints. Relative addresses like /page?id=1 cannot be parsed on their own, because they have no protocol or host. JustChecker builds tools that respect your data - this one never leaves your browser.
