Website to IP Address: Resolve Hostnames and DNS Records
Website to IP Address extracts the hostname from a full URL and looks up its DNS records using DNS-over-HTTPS. It removes the scheme, path, port, and credentials before querying A and AAAA records, then displays any CNAME chain. Use it to check a website URL’s IP records without installing a command-line client. The lookup requires an internet connection and sends the hostname to a public resolver.
Website to IP Address is a browser-based DNS lookup tool that extracts a hostname from a full URL and resolves its records. Use it to convert a website URL to an IP lookup without manually trimming the URL or installing a command-line client. It uses DNS-over-HTTPS to query the hostname and displays A and AAAA records along with any CNAME chain.
Paste a full URL with a scheme, path, port, or credentials. The tool removes those parts and keeps the hostname for the lookup. A records are used for IPv4 addresses, while AAAA records are used for IPv6 addresses; a CNAME record identifies an alias for another hostname. The tool also offers options to adjust, though their specific settings are not described here.
A URL can contain more information than DNS needs, such as a scheme or page path. DNS lookups use the hostname, so extracting it helps focus the query on the domain rather than the rest of the URL. The resulting records can help when checking how a website hostname resolves or when you need to view its CNAME chain.
The lookup runs through your browser, but it is not an offline operation: the hostname is sent to a public DNS-over-HTTPS resolver, so it leaves your browser. My-DevTools itself stores nothing, but the request still reaches that resolver. An internet connection is required to retrieve DNS results.
This tool can help developers and DevOps engineers who need a quick hostname lookup from a browser, whether they are troubleshooting DNS or working on a machine without a command-line client. Paste a URL, review the returned records, and copy the result when you need to keep or share it.
Step 1: Paste or enter a full URL, including its scheme if available. The tool extracts the hostname and removes the scheme, path, port, and credentials.
Step 2: Review the available options and adjust them as needed. The input does not specify what these options control.
Step 3: Start the lookup to query DNS over HTTPS. The tool checks A and AAAA records and displays any CNAME chain.
Step 4: Review the returned DNS information, then copy the result for your notes or troubleshooting.
Use case: Handle a routine Website to IP Address lookup without installing a local utility. Paste a full URL to extract its hostname and check its DNS records.
Use case: Check a website’s A and AAAA records while investigating whether it has IPv4 or IPv6 DNS entries. The results are shown alongside any CNAME chain.
Use case: Inspect the CNAME chain associated with a hostname when reviewing how a domain resolves. The tool presents the chain as part of the lookup result.
Use case: Look up a URL that includes a path, port, or credentials without manually separating the hostname first. The tool strips those parts before resolving the hostname.
Use case: Use a browser-based DNS lookup from a machine where you do not want to install a command-line client. The lookup uses DNS-over-HTTPS and requires a network connection.
Use case: Check DNS information while troubleshooting a website or preparing a hostname for further investigation. Copy the displayed result to refer to it elsewhere.
