URL: toJSON() method

Baseline Widely available

This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.

Note: This feature is available in Web Workers.

The toJSON() method of the URL interface returns a string containing a serialized version of the URL, although in practice it seems to have the same effect as URL.toString().

Return value

A string.

Examples

js
const url = new URL(
  "https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/URL/toString",
