01

What this tool covers

Compare response status and important HTTP headers returned by two public URLs. The result is based only on the source and settings supplied for the current run.

02

How to use the result

Start with a representative input, inspect the first output, and change one option at a time. Copy or download the result only after checking it against the source.

03

Important limitation

Headers can vary by cache, location and user agent, so treat the output as a point-in-time comparison.

About HTTP Header Comparison Tool

This HTTP Header Comparison Tool page is organised around the task described in the tool interface. Compare response status and important HTTP headers returned by two public URLs. The result changes when the source data or selected options change, so it is easy to run a second comparison.

A practical way to use it is to run a fresh diagnostic after a hosting, DNS, certificate, redirect, content or performance change. Start with a representative input, inspect the first result, then adjust one setting at a time if you need a different outcome.

The checker uses the public target you enter to make a diagnostic request. Do not place credentials or private access tokens in a URL.
