About this page

What does this tool do?

Builds both `curl` and `http` (HTTPie) commands from the request data you enter.

Useful for reproducible troubleshooting logs, incident handoff commands, and team-ready request templates.

What this tool does

  • Generate commands from method, URL, headers, and body
  • Apply follow-redirect and insecure options
  • Copy cURL and HTTPie outputs separately

Notes

  • Enter headers as one per line in `Header-Name: value` format.
  • Generated commands are shell-friendly defaults. Real environments may need extra options.
  • Mask sensitive headers (such as Authorization) before sharing commands.

FAQ

Can I attach a body to GET requests?

Technically yes, but server behavior differs. In operations, POST/PUT/PATCH is usually safer.

HTTPie command does not run in my environment.

The `http` command may not be installed, or shell behavior may differ. Use cURL if needed.
