cURL Converter
Turn a curl command into JavaScript fetch, Axios or Python requests code.
Processing: This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your input and any file you open stay on your device — nothing is uploaded to a server.
How to use the curl converter
- Copy a request as cURL from your browser's network tab.
- Paste it here and choose a target language.
- Copy the generated code — and remove any credentials first.
About this tool
The usual workflow this fits: open your browser's network tab, right-click a request, choose “Copy as cURL”, and paste it here to get working code in the language you are actually using.
Method, headers, request body, basic auth, user agent and referer are carried across. Flags that change how curl itself behaves — proxies, certificate options, retries, output files — have no equivalent in these libraries, so they are skipped rather than translated into something that only looks right.
One caution worth repeating: a command copied from a network tab carries your cookies and authorisation headers. They are real credentials. Nothing here is uploaded, but the generated code contains them, so strip them before sharing or committing it.
Common uses
- Turning a captured request into working fetch code.
- Reproducing an API call from documentation.
- Moving a curl example into a Python script.
Frequently asked questions
- Which curl flags are supported?
- Method, headers, data, basic auth, user agent and referer. Transport-level flags such as proxies and certificates are skipped, because these libraries handle them differently.
- Is it safe to paste a command with my session cookie?
- The conversion happens in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere. The risk is afterwards — the generated code contains those credentials, so do not paste it into a shared document or a repository.
