## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Xiaohongshu / RedNote Video Downloader — No Watermark (小红书无水印下载)

Paste a Xiaohongshu (RedNote / 小红书) share link and get the **real no-watermark video URL** — or the full-resolution image URLs for photo notes. Fast, lightweight, no browser needed.

### What does Xiaohongshu Video Downloader do?

Turn any Xiaohongshu (小红书 / RedNote) share link into clean, direct, **watermark-free** media URLs — via pure HTTP, no browser, no login.

- Resolve any **RedNote share link** or copied share text
- **Video notes** → a direct **no-watermark** video URL
- **Image notes** → full-resolution image URLs (all images in the note)
- Get **title and description** alongside the media
- **Batch mode** — resolve many links in one run
- **You only pay for successful resolves** — expired or invalid links are free
- **No browser needed** — runs in 128MB memory, extremely fast

### What data can you extract?

| Field | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| `type` | `video` or `image` |
| `download_url` | Direct **no-watermark** video URL (video notes) |
| `images` | Array of full-resolution image URLs (image notes) |
| `title` | Note title |
| `desc` | Note description |
| `platform` | Always `xiaohongshu` |
| `success` | Whether the link resolved |

### How to download a Xiaohongshu video or images

1. Create a free Apify account
2. Open [Xiaohongshu / RedNote Video Downloader](https://apify.com/agentflow/xiaohongshu-video-downloader)
3. Paste one or more RedNote share links (or the full share text copied from the app)
4. Click **Start**
5. Grab `download_url` (video) or `images` (photo note) from the results

### Input example

```json
{
    "urls": [
        "http://xhslink.com/o/7AFFiALSxVp"
    ]
}
````

### Output example (video note)

```json
{
    "input": "http://xhslink.com/o/7AFFiALSxVp",
    "platform": "xiaohongshu",
    "success": true,
    "type": "video",
    "title": "周末去了这家小店",
    "desc": "地址在评论区～",
    "download_url": "https://sns-video-hw.xhscdn.com/....mp4"
}
```

For an image note, `type` is `"image"` and an `images` array of URLs is returned instead of `download_url`.

### Integrations — automate RedNote downloads

Connect this Actor to almost any app through the Apify platform. Push resolved URLs into **Make**, **Zapier**, **n8n**, **Slack**, **Google Sheets**, or **Google Drive**, trigger runs with **webhooks**, or drive everything from the **Apify API**. You can also expose it to AI agents through an **MCP server**.

### Error handling

Invalid or expired links never fail the whole run — the Actor returns an item with `success: false` and an `error` message, and **does not charge** for it.

| Error | Meaning |
|-------|---------|
| `未识别到小红书链接，请粘贴完整的分享链接` | The input is not a recognizable RedNote link |
| `链接已过期，请在小红书 App 重新复制分享链接` | The share link expired — copy a fresh one from the app |
| `No downloadable media found` | The note contained no video or images |

### FAQ

#### How much does it cost?

**$0.007 per successful resolve** (i.e. $7 per 1,000). Failed or expired links are free — you are only charged when media is returned.

#### Does it work for both videos and image notes?

Yes. Video notes return a no-watermark `download_url`; image (photo) notes return an `images` array with every image at full resolution.

#### Why do some links say "expired"?

RedNote share links are time-limited. If you see an expired error, re-copy the share link fresh from the Xiaohongshu app and try again.

#### Is downloading Xiaohongshu content legal?

The Actor only accesses publicly viewable notes. You are responsible for how you use the content — respect the creator's rights, Xiaohongshu's Terms of Service, and copyright law.

#### Can I use it with the API or an MCP server?

Yes. Control it through the [Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2), or expose it to AI agents via the [Apify MCP server](https://mcp.apify.com).
