# original url

This block is part of the [`http connection`](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/http%20connection) group and was last modified in core [`v13.0.2`](https://docs.rual.nl/core-versions/130002).

Returns the original URL for this request, before internal routing.

- connection required `httpconnection`

- url `value`

Outputs the request's original URL before internal routing. Emits nothing at all (the url outpin is never written) when the connection is unwired or has no request.

A typical wiring for [original url](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/http%2520connection/httpconnection_get_original_url): the `url` out pin feeds [convert to uppercase](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/value/value_to_uppercase).
