How this service works
Follow a URL's redirect chain hop by hop: every step, the final destination, whether it crossed hosts, and a copy with tracking parameters stripped.
Output
Returns a structured breakdown of each hop in the redirect chain (status code, URL at each step), the final resolved destination URL, a boolean or indicator of whether the chain crossed different hostnames, and a cleaned version of the final URL with tracking/UTM parameters removed.
Example use cases
Unwrap suspicious phishing link
“I got an email with this link https://track.suspicious-domain.co/click?id=abc123 — can you follow all the redirects and tell me every hop it takes, the final destination, and whether it crossed into different hostnames?”
Clean marketing URL for sharing
“This link has a ton of UTM garbage on it: https://shop.example.com/products/shoes?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=spring2024 — can you trace it and give me the clean version with all tracking parameters stripped?”
Audit affiliate redirect chain
“I need to audit this affiliate link before putting it on my site: https://go.partnernetwork.com/aff?ref=abc&subid=xyz — follow all the redirects step by step and tell me whether it crosses host boundaries and where it ultimately lands.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://url-intel.bowling-anthony.workers.dev/resolveWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to understand the full redirect journey of a URL, not just the final destination — especially when detecting host-crossing, auditing affiliate or marketing links, unwrapping short URLs for security review, or obtaining a tracking-parameter-free clean URL. Prefer this over a simple HEAD request when hop-by-hop transparency or UTM stripping is required.
Side effects
- URL does not redirect — returns single-hop result with no chain
- Target URL is unreachable or times out — returns error with last successful hop
- Infinite redirect loop detected — returns error after max hops
- Malformed input URL — returns validation error
- DNS resolution failure for target host — returns network error
