i was parsing instagram with similar scraper and they gave me cdn url of video and i just downloaded it in my storage, to reduce cost and time

Hi, thanks for opening this issue!
Can you share the Instagram scraper that's able to do this? I'm not really sure what you mean? Are you trying to save the whole profile data, or just some specific fields, because later on you are talking about video URLs?
Thanks!

i am talking about video CDN of tiktoks, apify/instagram-reel-scraper

I see, this scraper can easily download the videos as well :) Just enable the shouldDownloadVideos
option, and you will be able to find them under the videoMeta.downloadAddr
output field.
I hope this helps, thanks and happy scraping!

i don't see where to enable it

i am using apify console input and don't see where to enable shouldDownloadVideos

Enable it in the input under the 📹 Download TikTok videos
-> Include videos
input option.
Or you use the JSON input editor where you can type the shouldDownloadVideos: true
option :)

But i don't want to save it in apify storage, i want link directly to tiktok CDN

TikTok doesn't have any easy to download video URLs. You wouldn't be able to download it from there.
Use the Apify one.

To add to Lukáš' answer, if you tick 📹 Download TikTok videos -> Include videos
you will get a URL to the video file under videoMeta.downloadAddr
for each dataset item. We used to provide links to TikTok's CDN but recently removed them because they were useless and confusing - they immediately expire if you don't save the exact cookies the scraper was using - the only way to preserve the video file is to directly download it somewhere.

Hi again,
I'm gonna close this issue for now, but if you still have any questions, please let us know. It's a good feedback for us.
