About zip extractor
Unpack a ZIP file into individual downloadable files — runs in your browser. It sits in the developer shelf alongside 76 other developer tools, needs no account, and keeps the same behaviour whether you open it here or call it through the REST API.
It takes a file in ZIP and gives back several files. It runs over a whole batch in one go. The work happens in your browser, so the file is never uploaded and the tool keeps working offline. The same operation is available programmatically at POST /v1/dev/zip-extractor.
ZIP Extractor questions
Does ZIP Extractor upload my file?
No. ZIP Extractor runs as WebAssembly inside this browser tab: the file is read from your disk by the page, processed on your own machine, and handed straight back. It is never sent anywhere, so there is nothing for us to store or delete.
What files can I use with ZIP Extractor?
ZIP files. The limit is 5 GB per file.
Can I run ZIP Extractor on several files at once?
Yes. ZIP Extractor takes one file at a time, so selecting several runs it once per file, one after another, and you get a result for each.
Do I need an account to use ZIP Extractor?
No. ZIP Extractor works without signing in, and that is not a trial — it is how the free tier works. An account only matters for things that need one to exist at all: larger server jobs against your quota, API keys, saved workflows and billing.
Can I run ZIP Extractor from my own code?
Yes. Every tool on the site is reachable from the REST API with the same slug — `zip-extractor` — and the same options as this page, so anything you can do here you can automate against your own files.
