## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

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

# README

## Pornhub Video Downloader

Save supported Pornhub videos from a URL for offline viewing, archiving favorites, QA, or organizing a personal media library. Paste a video link and the Actor returns a browser-ready download link and useful metadata without making you dig through page code or browser network requests.

### What You Get

- A simple URL-based workflow for supported Pornhub videos
- Support for `/view_video.php?viewkey={id}` URLs
- Support for pornhub.com, pornhub.net, and pornhub.org domains, including regional subdomains
- A browser-ready download link you can open or pass into your own workflow
- Metadata for each video, including title, description, creator, duration, thumbnail, tags, views, likes, dislikes, and comments

### Common Use Cases

- Build a personal offline Pornhub media library from supported video URLs
- Prepare downloaded videos for organizers like [Stash App](https://github.com/stashapp/stash) or a Plex Media Library
- Keep favorite videos together with useful metadata
- Collect video metadata for cataloging, QA, or research workflows

### Input

#### Download a public video

```json
{
  "url": "https://www.pornhub.org/view_video.php?viewkey=69055d8832c42",
  "debug": false
}
```

| Field                | Required | Description                                                                                                                         |
| -------------------- | -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `url`                | Yes      | Full Pornhub video page URL.                                                                                                        |
| `debug`              | No       | Adds selected diagnostics and raw page model data. Usually only needed while troubleshooting.                                       |
| `proxyConfiguration` | No       | Residential proxy pinned to the U.S. Virgin Islands by default. Override the country/groups or disable it via Apify's proxy editor. |

### Output

The Actor saves one item to the default dataset. Successful results include normalized metadata plus:

```json
{
  "thumbnailUrl": "https://...",
  "downloadUrl": "https://...",
  "downloadType": "free",
  "title": "Example Video",
  "description": "A clean, HTML-free description of the video.",
  "creatorName": "example-creator",
  "price": 0,
  "currency": "USD",
  "tags": ["Amateur", "Solo"],
  "likes": 43,
  "scrapeStatus": "ok",
  "scrapedAt": "2026-07-08T13:39:42.160Z",
  "videoId": "69055d8832c42"
}
```

Important download fields:

- `downloadUrl`: browser-ready download page link. The page resolves a fresh media source at click time.
- `downloadType`: currently always `free`.
- `price` / `currency`: currently always `0` / `USD`.

If the video cannot be resolved, the dataset item still contains a machine-readable status:

- `invalid_input`: Required input is missing or malformed.
- `not_found`: The video could not be found or was removed.
- `api_error`: The page could not be fetched or parsed.

### Limits and Notes

- The Actor returns one video download result per run.
- Site changes, unavailable videos, or changed page scripts can affect results.
- Users are responsible for making sure their use of downloads complies with applicable laws and website terms.
