What does the curl converter do?

It turns supported curl commands into code for over 20 HTTP clients, including Python Requests, JavaScript fetch, Node.js, Axios, PHP curl, Guzzle, Go, Java, C#, Ruby and Wget. Supported request details are preserved according to each client's capabilities. Browser fetch uses browser-managed headers and cookies.

Can I convert a curl command from API documentation into REST API client code?

Yes. Paste the Bash curl example from any REST API documentation and pick a language. Placeholders like $API_TOKEN are kept as text, so you can replace them with your values.

Do you send my curl command to a server?

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser with the open-source requestcodegen library. Nothing you paste is sent to a server or stored, so tokens and cookies stay on your computer.

How do I get a curl command from my browser?

Open the developer tools, go to the Network tab, right-click a request and choose Copy → "Copy as cURL (bash)". Then paste it into the converter.

Which curl options are not supported?

Options that read files or stdin (such as -d @file or -F), shell features like pipes and $(...), and multiple requests in one command are not supported. The converter shows an error instead of generating incomplete code. Output-only options such as -s, -v, -o and -w are accepted and left out of the generated code.

Examples:

Converted in your browser. Nothing you paste is sent to a server.

import requests

headers = {
    "Accept": "application/json",
}

response = requests.get(
    "https://api.example.com/users?page=2",
    headers=headers,
)

Copy a request as curl

Open the developer tools and go to the Network tab.
Right-click a request.
Choose Copy → "Copy as cURL (bash)".
Paste it into the converter above.

Copied commands often contain cookies and tokens. The converter runs in your browser, but be careful when sharing the generated code.
