Use cases

When to use MIME Type Lookup

Look up file extensions and common MIME types.

1Find the Content-Type for an upload endpoint

2Check which extensions commonly use a MIME type

3Review a file type before adding response headers

4Parse URLs, run XPath queries, and inspect HTTP status codes

5Build minimal reproducible HTTP requests for frontend/backend debugging

6Review error codes and API compatibility before release

Guidance

The lookup covers common web and office formats; it cannot inspect the actual bytes or guarantee how a client will interpret a file.

Inspect the components and query parameters of an absolute URL.

Look up the standard meaning of an HTTP response status.

Turn common cURL requests into JavaScript Fetch or Axios code.

Test HTTP APIs directly from the browser.
