Frequently Asked Questions

How do I copy a cURL command from Chrome DevTools?
Open DevTools (F12 or Cmd+Option+I), navigate to the Network tab, trigger the HTTP request, right-click the network entry, choose 'Copy' -> 'Copy as cURL', and paste it directly into this tool.
Are my private API keys and tokens secure?
Yes. This tool runs 100% client-side in your browser using pure JavaScript lexing and code generation. No requests, headers, tokens, or bodies are ever transmitted over the network or saved to any server.
Does this converter handle multi-line cURL commands?
Yes. It natively supports backslash line continuations ('\'), quotes within quotes, Windows caret line breaks, and all standard POSIX shell quoting conventions.
Which HTTP request methods are supported?
All standard HTTP verbs are supported: GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE, HEAD, and OPTIONS. If no method is explicitly specified via -X, it intelligently infers POST when payload data is present, otherwise defaulting to GET.
