Extract ZIP

Safely extract files from a ZIP archive. Single-file archives return the contained file directly; multi-file archives return a flat ZIP with the extracted contents.

API Endpoint

POST /api/v1/tools/extract-zip

Accepts multipart form data with a ZIP file. No settings field is required.

Parameters

This tool has no configurable parameters. Upload a .zip file to extract.

Notes

  • Only .zip files are accepted as input.
  • If the archive contains a single file, that file is returned directly (not wrapped in a ZIP).
  • If the archive contains multiple files, a flat ZIP is returned with all files extracted to the root level (nested directory structure is flattened).
  • Built-in bomb protection rejects archives with excessive compression ratios or file counts to prevent resource exhaustion.
