What Is a cURL Converter?

curl is the default way API docs, browser DevTools, and Postman show you how to make an HTTP request but you rarely want to run a shell command inside your application. Our tool parses a curl command and converts it into working code in the language you're building in, so you can go from "copy as cURL" to a real function call in seconds.

How to Use It

  1. Paste a curl command — copy it straight from your browser's Network tab ("Copy as cURL"), an API's documentation, or Postman.
  2. Choose a target language or format.
  3. Click Convert to get the equivalent code, ready to paste into your project.

The converter understands common curl flags including -X/--request, -H/--header, -d/--data, -F/--form, -u/--user, --data-urlencode, and cookies.

Supported Languages and Formats

  • Python (Requests)
  • JavaScript (Fetch) and Axios
  • Node.js (node-fetch and request)
  • PHP
  • C#
  • Go
  • PowerShell
  • wget
  • Ansible
  • Raw HTTP
  • JSON

A Note on Secrets

The conversion runs entirely in your browser. Your curl command, including any Authorization header, API key, or password it contains, is never sent to our servers.

Generating cURL Commands Programmatically

If you need to go the other direction like generating curl commands or realistic request code automatically inside your own scripts, rather than converting one command at a time, a dedicated HTTP client library for your language such as requests in Python or axios in Node is usually a better fit than shelling out to curl itself.

Frequently Asked Questions

It parses a curl command including flags like -X, -H, -d, -u, -F, and --data-urlencode and generates equivalent code in your target language, so you can copy an API request straight out of your browser's DevTools or a REST API's docs and drop it into your codebase.

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser. Your curl command is never sent to our servers.

Some curl flags don't have a direct equivalent in every target language (for example, certain TLS or proxy options). When that happens, the tool still generates the closest working code and lists what was skipped or approximated.
