URL validation

Check that URL properties return the expected HTTP status code.

How it works​

NoteValidator sends a lightweight HTTP request to the URL (HEAD first, GET fallback), follows redirects, and compares the response status with your allowed code(s) or range(s).

Configuration​

  • Allowed status: enter a single code (200), a range (200-299), or multiple values (200, 201, 304-307).
  • Empty URL values pass this rule. Use Required value if you need the URL to be mandatory.

Examples​

  • 200: only pages that return 200 OK pass.
  • 200-299: any success status in the 2xx range passes.
  • 200, 201, 304: any of the listed codes pass.

Tips​

  • Only http and https URLs are supported.
  • If a site blocks automated checks, the rule will fail and surface an issue.
