Review converted credentials
cURL commands can contain bearer tokens, cookies, API keys, and basic authentication values. Replace hard-coded secrets with environment variables or your project secret manager before committing generated code.

How to use the cURL to Code
- 1Paste a complete cURL command into the input editor.
- 2Select the target programming language and request library.
- 3Generate the equivalent code and review headers, credentials, and request data.
- 4Copy the result into your project and move sensitive values into environment variables.
- 5Test the converted request against the intended API before using it in production.
Common uses
- Convert an API documentation example into application code.
- Move a working terminal request into a test suite or integration.
- Compare request syntax across Fetch, Axios, Requests, and other clients.
- Turn copied browser network requests into a maintainable code example.
Check library-specific behavior
The converter preserves the intent of the request, but redirect handling, timeouts, cookie storage, and error behavior differ between HTTP libraries. Review those options when converting production requests.
Frequently asked questions
Which parts of a cURL request are converted?
The converter handles common methods, headers, authentication, query parameters, JSON bodies, and form data supported by the selected output library.
Should I commit the generated authentication values?
No. Move tokens, passwords, cookies, and API keys into environment variables or a secret manager before saving the code.
Will every cURL flag work in every language?
Not always. Some cURL transport and networking flags do not have direct equivalents in every HTTP library and should be reviewed manually.
