Extracted URLs

List every link hiding in your content

Links sit inside HTML attributes, Markdown, emails, chat logs and JavaScript strings, which makes them tedious to gather by hand. This tool scans whatever you paste and returns a clean list of web addresses. That gives you something concrete to check for a link audit, a citation list or a migration checklist. It runs in your browser when you click the button.

Getting your list

Paste HTML, plain text or code into the box. Paste uses the clipboard, Sample loads text containing a few example links, and Clear empties the input and resets the counters.
The Words badge shows the size of your input.
Press the extract button.
Results appear under Extracted URLs, and Links Found gives the total. Use the copy icon beside a URL to copy it individually.
Press JSON for extracted_data.json, or Download List for extracted_data.txt with one address per line.

What is recognized as a URL

Only addresses that begin with http:// or https:// are matched. The tool then reads the domain, its ending, and any path, query string or fragment that follows. Repeated links are removed, keeping the first occurrence, so a URL used twenty times in a page shows once. The same address with and without a trailing slash counts as two different strings.

Practical scenarios

Auditing the outbound links in a page source before publishing.
Pulling every reference from a research document into a bibliography draft.
Collecting all endpoints mentioned in an API document or a log.
Gathering links from an email thread to check them for redirects or broken pages.

Edge cases to be aware of

Links written without a protocol, such as www.example.com or example.com/page, are not found, and neither are mailto: or ftp: addresses. Because path characters include dots, a URL followed directly by a full stop at the end of a sentence may include that full stop in the result, so review such entries. Relative links like /about in HTML are ignored since they have no domain. The tool does not visit the links, so it cannot say whether any of them still work.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will it find links without http or https?

No. The search requires the address to start with http:// or https://. Bare domains such as www.example.com, mailto links and relative paths like /about are not listed. Add the protocol to the text first if you need them.

Can I paste raw HTML?

Yes. The tool reads the text as it is, so URLs inside href and src attributes, scripts and comments are found along with those in visible text. Relative links that lack a domain are not included.

Why does one URL end with a period?

The path part of the pattern allows dots, so a full stop that immediately follows a link at the end of a sentence can be captured with it. Remove the trailing punctuation from that entry after copying.

Are repeated URLs listed more than once?

No, identical strings are collapsed into one entry, in order of first appearance. A version with a trailing slash or different query string is a different string and is listed separately.

Does the tool check if the links work?

No. It only identifies text that looks like a web address and does not open or test any of them. Use a link checker afterwards if you need to find broken or redirected URLs.
