What the Magnet Link Generator does

A magnet URI identifies content by its BitTorrent info hash instead of a hosted file, with an optional display name and tracker list appended.

The tool builds the magnet: URI with the xt=urn:btih info hash, a dn display name and one tr tracker parameter per tracker you add.

Worked example

Inputs: Info hash c12fe1..., name dataset-2026
Result: magnet:?xt=urn:btih:c12fe1...&dn=dataset-2026

A magnet link that any BitTorrent client can open.

When to use this tool

Pair the magnet link generator with the short link generator for a tidy shareable address, or the QR code generator when the link has to work on print.
