How to use it
- Enter the URL suspected of repeated redirection.
- Press Check to run the server request.
- Review Redirects and Final Destination URL.
- Check whether the response headers table contains usable data.
- Use Copy Result to preserve the summary for deeper tracing.
The interface never emits an explicit loop verdict. A zero server status is rendered as 200, and the backend does not pass its cURL error to the page.
What is the purpose of the tool
Redirect Loop Checker attempts to follow a submitted URL through the same server helper used by the other HTTP tools. Its redirect count and final-response data can provide clues when a route does not settle normally.
The maximum is five redirects. Because errors and individual hops are not exposed, the result cannot reliably confirm or locate a loop by itself.
What parameters it generates in output
| Field | Meaning | Healthy result |
|---|---|---|
| Target Evaluated | The normalized URL submitted to the server. | It matches the suspected route. |
| Status badge | The returned code, with falsy codes replaced by 200, plus OK or Error. | Interpret only with the other fields. |
| Latency | Total elapsed request time. | It completes without an excessive delay. |
| Redirects | The number of redirects reported before completion or limit. | It remains below the unexpected-loop pattern. |
| Final Destination URL | The effective URL returned by the helper. | A stable intended URL appears. |
| Header | A parsed final response header name. | Final headers are available. |
| Value | The paired final response header content. | It is consistent with the destination. |
FAQs related to that specific tool
Does the page display a redirect loop warning?
No. The interface has no loop-detected or too-many-redirects field.
Why can a loop appear as 200 OK?
When the server returns an HTTP code of zero, the renderer replaces that falsy value with 200. The backend also omits its cURL error from the response.
Can I see the URLs that repeat?
No. Individual redirect hops are not included in the output.
What happens after five redirects?
The helper reaches its configured redirect limit, but the page does not expose a dedicated limit error.
Why are there no response headers?
A loop or failed request may prevent a final header block from being parsed.
Can the browser fallback diagnose a loop?
No. That fallback generates a synthetic HTTPS success report.
