List of YouTube video or Shorts URLs to download. Supports regular videos (youtube.com/watch?v=...) and Shorts (youtube.com/shorts/...).

Type:array

Video Quality

quality

Optional

Maximum video resolution to download. The best available quality up to this limit will be selected. Higher quality means larger file sizes. For YouTube Shorts, 1080p is more likely to need residential proxy fallback than 720p. 1440p and above are temporarily unavailable while we stabilize higher-quality downloads, and we are working on bringing them back.

Output Format

format

Optional

Choose the output format. 'default' downloads as MP4 video. 'mp3' extracts audio only as MP3.

Residential Proxy Fallback (paid, off by default)

residentialProxyMode

Optional

Controls the paid residential proxy fallback used only when the free/direct download path is blocked by YouTube (bot-detection, LOGIN_REQUIRED, region blocks). COST WARNING: when this fallback actually runs, it adds a $1.50 per-minute surcharge on top of the normal quality rate, roughly 50x the base 1080p rate and 300x the MP3 rate. It is OFF by default to keep costs predictable. Only turn it on if you accept the surcharge, and set a 'Max total charge (USD)' on the run (in the Apify run dialog) to cap your spend. If the fallback is never triggered during a run, no surcharge is charged.

Type:string

Default:disabled

Options:

disabledfallback

Proxy Country (only used if Fallback is enabled)

proxyCountry

Optional

Country code for the residential proxy used as a fallback when YouTube blocks datacenter IPs (LOGIN_REQUIRED / bot detection). Leave empty to auto-select. This field is ignored unless 'Residential Proxy Fallback' is set to 'fallback'. Reminder: the residential fallback adds $1.50 per downloaded minute when actually triggered.
