URL Query Editor

What is the URL Query Editor?#

The URL Query Editor shows a URL's query parameters in a table so you can inspect and edit them. Only the parameters you edit are rewritten. Everything else keeps its original encoding.

How to Use#

1. Paste a URL into the URL field. Its query parameters appear as rows.
2. Edit keys and values in the table. The URL updates as you type.
3. Copy the updated URL or just the query string.

Bare query strings must start with ?.

Editing Parameters#

• On/off toggle: Unchecking a row removes it from the URL but keeps it in the table. Check it again to put it back near its original position.
• Editing a row: Typing a key or value changes only that parameter. The other side stays as it was.
• Decoded and raw view: Decoded view shows readable values and encodes your edits. Raw view shows and saves the text exactly as it appears in the URL.
• Duplicate keys: Rows with the same key get a Duplicate badge.
• Flags and empty values: A flag like debug has no value. Typing a value adds the =. An empty value like a= keeps its =.

URL Summary#

• Length: total URL length. The meter turns orange past 2000 characters.
• Query: length of the query string after ?.
• Keys: number of different keys.
• Duplicates: number of keys used more than once.

Use Cases#

• Remove tracking parameters from a shared link while keeping the rest of the URL intact.
• Replace a single value in a signed or pre-generated URL without retyping the whole string.
• Break down a long URL to see which parameters it carries and how long the URL and its query are.
