URL slug
ID slug
This record is a draft: it has not been reviewed yet and may be incomplete or wrong. Do not rely on it for compliance decisions. Help improve it (see CONTRIBUTING.md).
Readable part of a URL that names a page or a record, written in lowercase Latin letters and digits joined by hyphens, such as model-gruzovogo-parohoda-donec. Content management systems and web frameworks make it from the title, transliterated when the title is not in Latin script, and add a number when the slug is already taken (kochedyk-10). APIs and exports keep it in a field named slug. Some frameworks also allow underscores and uppercase letters; the regular expression covers only the common lowercase form. A lowercase word without hyphens is also a valid slug, so the value alone is weak evidence.
