How do I convert a curl command to Swift?

Paste the full curl command into the input on this page. The Swift code appears in the output panel and updates automatically. Click Copy to use it.

Does the converter support headers, authentication, and request bodies?

Yes. Custom headers, basic and bearer authentication, JSON payloads, form data, and most other curl flags are translated faithfully into the equivalent code.

Is my curl command sent to a server?

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript — nothing is uploaded, logged, or stored. Still, scrub any tokens or cookies before sharing the output.

Can I convert Swift code back to curl?

Reverse conversion is on our roadmap and listed under Coming soon. For now this tool only converts curl into other languages.

Where can I get help with the output?

If something looks wrong with the generated Swift code, the underlying converter is open source and accepts issues on GitHub.

How to copy a curl command from DevTools

Most browsers can export any network request as a ready-to-paste curl command.

Chrome / Edge

Open DevTools (F12 or Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + I)
Go to the Network tab and reload the page
Right-click a request → Copy → Copy as cURL

Firefox

Open the Network Monitor in DevTools
Right-click a request → Copy Value → Copy as cURL
Paste it in the input above

Safari

Enable the Develop menu in Settings → Advanced
Open Web Inspector → Network tab
Right-click a request → Copy as cURL

Your data stays in your browser

We never transmit, store, or log the curl commands you paste. All parsing and conversion happens client-side using JavaScript.

Watch for secrets

Curl commands copied from DevTools often contain cookies, bearer tokens, or API keys. Never share converted code without scrubbing those values first.
