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. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## RedTube Video Downloader ### 🎬 Get direct RedTube video links and details RedTube Video Downloader is for developers, media teams, and researchers who need links and details for public RedTube videos. Add video pages, album pages, embed links, regional links, or video IDs. Get a source-hosted media link, the chosen variant, all available variants, and useful video details without storing the video file. - Use **[RedTube Video Downloader](https://apify.com/maximedupre/redtube-downloader/examples/redtube-video-downloader)** to get links and details from public video pages or IDs. - Run **[RedTube Link Downloader](https://apify.com/maximedupre/redtube-downloader/examples/redtube-link-downloader)** to turn known RedTube links into direct media links. - Choose **[RedTube 4K Downloader](https://apify.com/maximedupre/redtube-downloader/examples/redtube-4k-downloader)** to ask for a 2160p variant when RedTube offers one. - Choose **[RedTube HD Downloader](https://apify.com/maximedupre/redtube-downloader/examples/redtube-hd-downloader)** to ask for an HD variant when one is available. - Use **[RedTube MP4 Downloader](https://apify.com/maximedupre/redtube-downloader/examples/redtube-mp4-downloader)** to prefer an available MP4 variant. #### 📦 What data does it return? Each successful video creates one dataset row with: - A direct, source-hosted media link - The requested and chosen video variant - Available formats, quality labels, and dimensions - The video ID and canonical page URL - The title, description, duration, tags, and thumbnail when available The Actor saves the first eligible occurrence of a video. If the same video appears again through another submitted source, it is skipped. #### ▶️ How to run the Actor 1. Open the Actor in Apify Console. 2. Add one or more RedTube links or video IDs. 3. Pick the quality or format you prefer. 4. Set a video limit, or clear it to process all available videos until the source is exhausted. 5. Click **Start** and open the dataset when the run ends. Only use public content that you are allowed to access and download. The Actor does not bypass login, payment, deletion, or access blocks. #### ⚙️ Input | Field | Type | What it does | |---|---|---| | `sources` | string array | Adds one or more RedTube video links, album links, embed links, regional links, or bare video IDs.

You are charged for each public video that is successfully saved with a direct media link. Failed sources and sources with no saved video are not charged by the video event. Platform compute charges may still apply; check the live pricing shown in Apify Console before a run. #### 🔌 Integrations Send dataset rows to Google Sheets, Slack, webhooks, or other Apify integrations. You can also run the Actor through the Apify API, schedule repeat runs, or connect it to your own workflow. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNACk1\_S\_6w\&list=PLObrtcm1Kw6MUrlLNDbK9QRg8VDJg0gOW\&index=4 #### ❓ FAQ ##### Does it save the video file? No. It returns a fresh source-hosted media link. It does not copy the video into Apify storage or create a ZIP file. ##### Will a direct link keep working forever? Do not treat the link as permanent. Run the Actor again when you need a fresh link. ##### What happens if my requested quality is not available? The Actor picks an available variant and reports the actual choice in `appliedVariant`. Check `availableVariants` to see what RedTube exposed. ##### Can I use album, embed, or regional links? Yes. Album pages can add their public videos. Embed links and regional RedTube links are supported when they identify an accessible video. ##### Does one bad link stop a batch? No. Each submitted source is handled on its own, so the Actor continues with the other sources. ##### Can it search RedTube by keyword or category? No. Add known video pages, album pages, embed links, regional links, or video IDs. ### 📝 Changelog #### 0.0: Initial release - Download direct links and video details from public RedTube pages, albums, embeds, regional links, or video IDs. ### 🆘 Support For issues, questions, or feature requests, [file a ticket](https://console.apify.com/actors/maximedupre~redtube-downloader/issues) and I'll fix or implement it in less than 24h 🫡 ### 🔗 Related Actors - [XNXX Video Downloader](https://apify.com/maximedupre/xnxx-video-downloader) — Get direct links and metadata from public XNXX videos. - [PornTrex Downloader](https://apify.com/maximedupre/porntrex-downloader) — Get direct MP4 links and variants from public PornTrex watch pages. - [XVideos Downloader](https://apify.com/maximedupre/xvideos-downloader) — Export source-hosted MP4 or HLS links from public XVideos pages. - [TXXX Downloader](https://apify.com/maximedupre/txxx-downloader) — Get public TXXX video links and details from URLs or IDs. - [Upornia Downloader](https://apify.com/maximedupre/upornia-downloader) — Export direct MP4 links and details from known public Upornia videos. **Made with ❤️ by Maxime Dupré** # Actor input Schema ## `sources` (type: `array`): Add one or more RedTube video links, album links, embed links, regional links, or bare video IDs.
