[c#] Get file name from URI string in C#

I have this method for grabbing the file name from a string URI. What can I do to make it more robust?

private string GetFileName(string hrefLink)
{
    string[] parts = hrefLink.Split('/');
    string fileName = "";

    if (parts.Length > 0)
        fileName = parts[parts.Length - 1];
    else
        fileName = hrefLink;

    return fileName;
}

I think this will do what you need:

var uri = new Uri(hreflink);
var filename = uri.Segments.Last();

this is my sample you can use:

        public static string GetFileNameValidChar(string fileName)
    {
        foreach (var item in System.IO.Path.GetInvalidFileNameChars())
        {
            fileName = fileName.Replace(item.ToString(), "");
        }
        return fileName;
    }

    public static string GetFileNameFromUrl(string url)
    {
        string fileName = "";
        if (Uri.TryCreate(url, UriKind.Absolute, out Uri uri))
        {
            fileName = GetFileNameValidChar(Path.GetFileName(uri.AbsolutePath));
        }
        string ext = "";
        if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(fileName))
        {
            ext = Path.GetExtension(fileName);
            if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(ext))
                ext = ".html";
            else
                ext = "";
            return GetFileNameValidChar(fileName + ext);

        }

        fileName = Path.GetFileName(url);
        if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(fileName))
        {
            fileName = "noName";
        }
        ext = Path.GetExtension(fileName);
        if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(ext))
            ext = ".html";
        else
            ext = "";
        fileName = fileName + ext;
        if (!fileName.StartsWith("?"))
            fileName = fileName.Split('?').FirstOrDefault();
        fileName = fileName.Split('&').LastOrDefault().Split('=').LastOrDefault();
        return GetFileNameValidChar(fileName);
    }

Usage:

var fileName = GetFileNameFromUrl("http://cdn.p30download.com/?b=p30dl-software&f=Mozilla.Firefox.v58.0.x86_p30download.com.zip");

As of 2020, handles query strings & encoded URLs

public static string GetFileNameFromUrl (string url)
{
    var decoded = HttpUtility.UrlDecode(url);

    if (decoded.IndexOf("?") is {} queryIndex && queryIndex != -1)
    {
        decoded = decoded.Substring(0, queryIndex);
    }

    return Path.GetFileName(decoded);
}

using System.IO;

private String GetFileName(String hrefLink)
{
    return Path.GetFileName(hrefLink.Replace("/", "\\"));
}

THis assumes, of course, that you've parsed out the file name.

EDIT #2:

using System.IO;

private String GetFileName(String hrefLink)
{
    return Path.GetFileName(Uri.UnescapeDataString(hrefLink).Replace("/", "\\"));
}

This should handle spaces and the like in the file name.

The accepted answer is problematic for http urls. Moreover Uri.LocalPath does Windows specific conversions, and as someone pointed out leaves query strings in there. A better way is to use Uri.AbsolutePath

The correct way to do this for http urls is:

Uri uri = new Uri(hreflink);
string filename = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(uri.AbsolutePath);

Simple and straight forward:

            Uri uri = new Uri(documentAttachment.DocumentAttachment.PreSignedUrl);
            fileName = Path.GetFileName(uri.LocalPath);

Most other answers are either incomplete or don't deal with stuff coming after the path (query string/hash).

readonly static Uri SomeBaseUri = new Uri("http://canbeanything");

static string GetFileNameFromUrl(string url)
{
    Uri uri;
    if (!Uri.TryCreate(url, UriKind.Absolute, out uri))
        uri = new Uri(SomeBaseUri, url);

    return Path.GetFileName(uri.LocalPath);
}

Test results:

GetFileNameFromUrl("");                                         // ""
GetFileNameFromUrl("test");                                     // "test"
GetFileNameFromUrl("test.xml");                                 // "test.xml"
GetFileNameFromUrl("/test.xml");                                // "test.xml"
GetFileNameFromUrl("/test.xml?q=1");                            // "test.xml"
GetFileNameFromUrl("/test.xml?q=1&x=3");                        // "test.xml"
GetFileNameFromUrl("test.xml?q=1&x=3");                         // "test.xml"
GetFileNameFromUrl("http://www.a.com/test.xml?q=1&x=3");        // "test.xml"
GetFileNameFromUrl("http://www.a.com/test.xml?q=1&x=3#aidjsf"); // "test.xml"
GetFileNameFromUrl("http://www.a.com/a/b/c/d");                 // "d"
GetFileNameFromUrl("http://www.a.com/a/b/c/d/e/");              // ""

Uri.IsFile doesn't work with http urls. It only works for "file://". From MSDN : "The IsFile property is true when the Scheme property equals UriSchemeFile." So you can't depend on that.

Uri uri = new Uri(hreflink);
string filename = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(uri.LocalPath);
