URL Parser / Query String Splitter

The URL Parser / Query String Splitter breaks a URL into its individual parts — protocol, host, port, path, hash and every query parameter listed separately — instead of leaving you to eyeball a long string for the piece you need. Paste a URL and get a clean, labeled breakdown instantly.

It's useful for debugging a redirect that's landing on the wrong page by inspecting its exact path and query string, checking what tracking parameters (UTM tags, referral codes) are actually attached to a link before sharing it, decoding a complex URL with many query parameters to find one specific value quickly, and understanding a URL a bug report or support ticket pasted in without manually counting ampersands and question marks.

Parsing uses the browser's native URL API — the same URL-parsing logic every browser uses internally to load a page — so the breakdown here matches exactly what parsing that URL in JavaScript (or any modern browser) would produce. Query parameters are extracted individually with their decoded values (percent-encoded characters like %20 or %3D are automatically decoded), so a param like `?q=hello%20world` shows up as `q = hello world`, not the raw encoded string.

URLs without a scheme (like `example.com/path` instead of `https://example.com/path`) are rejected with a clear message rather than silently guessed at, since the URL API itself requires an explicit scheme to parse correctly — add `https://` (or the correct scheme) to the front and it'll parse normally. Credentials embedded in a URL (`https://user:pass@host`) are broken out into their own fields too, which is useful for spotting a leaked token or password sitting in a URL before it's shared somewhere it shouldn't be. Parsing happens entirely in your browser; the URL you're inspecting is never sent anywhere, which matters when the URL itself contains a session token, API key or other sensitive query parameter.
