  • but status code vary based on what happens, if you want just validate: var url = require("url"); var result = url.parse('http://drive.google.com/0/23'); https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30931079/validating-a-url-in-node-js/55585593 – Mayra Navarro Jan 21 '20 at 06:39

You can simply do an HTTP head request to check whether the url exist.

var request = require("request");

var options = {
  method: 'HEAD',
  url: 'https://test.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/occupancy.csv',
};

request(options, function (error, response, body) {
  if (error) throw new Error(error);

  console.log(response.statusCode);
});
