URL Extractor

URL Extractor

Use this free URL extractor to find and extract URLs from text instantly. Paste text containing web links into the tool above, and it will pull matching http:// and https:// URLs into a clean result list.

It is useful when links are mixed with sentences, notes, contact information, or other content and you want to separate the URLs without searching through the text manually.

How to Extract URLs from Text

To extract URLs:

1. Paste or type your text into the input box.
2. The URL extractor scans the text for matching web addresses.
3. Review the extracted URLs in the result area.
4. Copy the results or download them as a .txt file.
5. Clear the input when you’re finished.

The surrounding text is ignored, leaving the detected URLs in the results.

What Types of URLs Can It Extract?

The tool can detect URLs that begin with common web protocols such as https:// and http://.

For example:

https://example.com
https://docs.example.com/guide
https://www.example.com/search?q=text
http://example.org/page

It can therefore extract links containing subdomains, paths, and common URL parameters when they appear as part of a complete HTTP or HTTPS URL.

Extract URLs from Mixed Text

You do not need to provide a list containing only links. The URL extractor can find URLs surrounded by ordinary text.

For example:

Website: https://example.com
Documentation: https://docs.example.com/guide
Email: hello@example.com

The tool extracts the two web URLs while leaving the email address and surrounding labels out of the results.

This makes it useful when working with notes, copied text, reports, messages, or other content containing a mixture of information.

URL Extractor vs. Plain Domain Extraction

A URL and a plain domain name are not always the same input.

For example:

https://example.com — complete URL
http://example.org/page — complete URL with a path
example.net — plain domain without a protocol

This URL extractor is designed to detect links beginning with http:// or https://. A plain domain such as example.net without a protocol may not be extracted.

Knowing this distinction can help you prepare your text and understand the results.

URLs with Paths and Query Parameters

Web addresses often contain more than a homepage domain. A URL can include folders, page paths, and query parameters.

For example:

https://example.com/articles/guide

or:

https://example.com/search?q=text

The URL extractor can keep these components together when they are part of the detected URL, making the result more useful than extracting only the domain name.

Extract Other Information from Text

TextNivo also provides related extraction tools for different types of information.

Use Extract Emails when you need email addresses, Extract Phone Numbers for phone-number-like sequences, or Extract Numbers for general numeric values found in text.

Each tool focuses on a different type of pattern, so you can choose the one that matches the information you need to separate.

Private Browser-Based URL Extractor

The text you enter is processed directly in your browser. You don’t need to create an account or upload a document to use the URL extractor.

Paste your text, extract the URLs, copy or download the results, and clear the input when you’re finished.
