Frequently Asked Questions

cURL is a command-line tool for transferring data with URLs. It supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and more. The curl command is used to make API requests, test endpoints, and download files. It's the standard for sharing API examples.

This tool parses: -X/--request (method), -H/--header (headers), -d/--data (POST data), -u/--user (basic auth), -b/--cookie (cookies), --data-urlencode (URL-encoded data), -F/--form (multipart), and URL parameters.

Paste your cURL command and select JavaScript (fetch). The tool extracts the URL, method, headers, and body, then generates equivalent fetch() code with proper options. Headers are converted to a Headers object, auth to Authorization header.

Yes. Basic auth from -u user:pass becomes Authorization: Basic header. Bearer tokens in -H 'Authorization: Bearer ...' are preserved. API keys in headers or query params are maintained in the generated code.

-d sends data as-is (application/x-www-form-urlencoded). --data-urlencode automatically URL-encodes values. The tool detects this and generates appropriate encoding in the target language (encodeURIComponent in JS, urllib.parse.quote in Python).

cURL commands with multiple -H flags are parsed into separate header entries. The tool extracts all headers and generates the appropriate header syntax for each language (Headers object in JS, dict in Python, array in PHP).

Yes. The tool handles JSON data (Content-Type: application/json), form data (application/x-www-form-urlencoded), multipart forms (-F flag), and raw text. It detects the content type and generates appropriate code for each language.

Common issues: missing quotes around URLs with special chars, escaped quotes inside data (use raw strings), or unsupported flags. Try simplifying the command or manually removing shell-specific syntax like $variables.

Yes. Cookies from -b or --cookie flags are parsed and converted to Cookie headers. In languages with session support (Python requests), cookies are added to the session. For fetch/axios, they're included in headers.

Absolutely. Many APIs provide cURL examples in docs. Use this tool to generate examples in multiple languages for your readers. Great for SDKs, onboarding, and language-specific documentation.
