About URL Metadata Inspector
Social platforms and messengers build link previews from Open Graph and meta tags embedded in a page. This inspector fetches those tags so you can verify headlines, images, and descriptions match your intent.
FileShot reads publicly accessible HTML server-side and returns structured metadata. Private pages, login walls, and blocked hosts may not preview correctly.
Frequently asked questions
Does this upload my files?
No. You paste a URL and we fetch the page HTML to extract meta tags. No file upload is involved.
Why is my preview image missing?
Some sites block bots, use JavaScript-only tags, or omit og:image. Try the live page in a browser to confirm.
Is URL inspection counted in the daily quota?
Yes. URL metadata lookups count toward your shared FileShot tools daily quota like other server-assisted tools.
