What Is Data URI to UTF-8 Converter?
Our Data URI to UTF-8 Converter is a free online tool that decodes data URIs back into readable UTF-8 text. Data URIs are a way to embed data directly into web pages using the data:[mime][;charset][;base64],data format. This tool extracts the embedded content and displays it as human-readable text.
How to Use the Data URI to UTF-8 Converter
- Paste a Data URI: Enter or paste your data URI in the input area.
- Automatic Decoding: The tool instantly decodes both base64 and URL-encoded data URIs.
- View Results: The decoded UTF-8 text appears alongside metadata about the data URI.
Understanding Data URIs
A data URI has the format data:[<mime type>][;charset=<charset>][;base64],<data>. The tool parses each part:
- MIME Type: Indicates the type of data (text/plain, text/html, etc.)
- Charset: Specifies the character encoding (UTF-8 by default)
- Encoding: Data can be base64-encoded or URL-encoded
For example, the data URI data:text/plain;base64,SGVsbG8sIFdvcmxkIQ== decodes to Hello, World!

Frequently Asked Questions
What formats of data URIs does this tool support?
The tool supports both base64-encoded data URIs (data:...;base64,...) and URL-encoded data URIs (data:...,...). It supports any MIME type and charset.
Can I decode binary data URIs like images?
This tool is designed for text-based data URIs. Binary data URIs (like images) will be decoded to text, but the result may appear as garbled characters since the binary data isn't human-readable text.
What information does the metadata section show?
The metadata displays the MIME type, encoding method (base64 or URL), charset, original data length, and decoded text length, giving you full insight into the data URI structure.
Is my data processed server-side?
No, all decoding is performed locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your data URIs remain private and are never transmitted to any server.
