## Description

<strong>Use case:</strong>
When you need to visit the same path on different domains or ports. For example:
1. You're on <code><a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/10ac4d9af8c5af7200ec8ae650d18bfa98306373781a9f8fc1dbd69287aded9a/https%3A//staging.example.com/products/123%3Fview=details" rel="nofollow">https://staging.example.com/products/123?view=details</a></code>
2. Click <strong>Copy Path</strong> (Shift+Alt+U) to copy <code>/products/123?view=details</code>
3. Navigate to <code><a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/4ed4e5b901d16e4e9062b46f6a8e4eb611d4fbcb7b9b6925122611d0ac8375e7/https%3A//production.example.com" rel="nofollow">https://production.example.com</a></code>
4. Click <strong>Paste Path</strong> (Shift+Alt+I) to go to <code><a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/32c26eacb25a5cf1bf59029641df1be3c209b48fec4d59dc1149062e1fab0b0b/https%3A//production.example.com/products/123%3Fview=details" rel="nofollow">https://production.example.com/products/123?view=details</a></code>

The keyboard shortcuts can be customized in Firefox via about:addons → gear icon → Manage Extension Shortcuts.

<strong>Paste Path</strong> will also strip <code><a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/39541a8b4c9bb24f6383cd0a78de9c22eef7b6bcf647bd75853758064e0f1f3a/https%3A//example.com" rel="nofollow">https://example.com</a></code> from <code><a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/bb579edf36dbc42bba5ca3e107a3273c1c0d2c2a106afde0379be155107a79f1/https%3A//example.com/destination" rel="nofollow">https://example.com/destination</a></code>, which means you can copy any link as usual and use it with Fastpath.
