Meta & Open Graph Preview

Preview website metadata and social sharing information.

Website URL

The URL is fetched by the BOYGR Tools server so its HTML metadata can be inspected. Private and reserved network destinations are blocked.

What is Meta & Open Graph Preview?

Meta & Open Graph Preview inspects common HTML metadata from a public webpage, including page title, description, canonical URL, Open Graph tags, and Twitter card metadata.

How to use Meta & Open Graph Preview

Enter a public HTTP or HTTPS webpage URL.
Select Inspect metadata.
Review the page title, description, and canonical URL.
Inspect available Open Graph and Twitter metadata.
Review the generated social preview.

Open Graph and social metadata

Open Graph tags help websites describe how pages should appear when shared on compatible social platforms and messaging applications. Twitter card metadata provides similar information for supported Twitter/X previews.

Protected server-side URL fetching

BOYGR Tools validates requested URLs before fetching them. Localhost, private networks, link-local addresses, reserved address ranges, unsupported protocols, and unsafe redirects are rejected by the Meta Preview backend.

Server-side processing

Unlike browser-only utilities, this tool sends the requested public URL to the BOYGR Tools server. The server retrieves a limited HTML response, extracts metadata, and returns the parsed values to the browser.

Frequently asked questions

Why does Meta Preview run on the server?

Fetching arbitrary websites directly from a browser is often restricted by cross-origin policies. Server-side retrieval also allows BOYGR Tools to validate destinations and safely inspect HTML metadata.

Why is some metadata missing?

Not every webpage provides every metadata tag. A page may omit Open Graph, Twitter, canonical, or description metadata.

Why can a website reject the request?

Some websites block automated requests, require authentication, use bot protection, or return metadata only after client-side JavaScript executes.

Can I inspect localhost or private network URLs?

No. Private, localhost, link-local, and reserved network destinations are intentionally blocked to reduce server-side request forgery risks.
