Youtube Shorts Downloader

🎬 Download known YouTube Shorts as video and audio files

YouTube Shorts Downloader is for creators, developers, and teams that already have public Shorts links. Submit those links to get downloaded video and audio files in Apify storage, plus source media URLs, available quality, format details, thumbnails, duration, channel data, and public view, like, and comment counts when available. You get one dataset row for each Short, ready to review, catalog, or pass into another workflow.

• Use YouTube Shorts video downloader to save video files and details from known public Shorts URLs.
• Get a file for each Short with download video MP4, in MP4 when YouTube offers it.
• Keep a Short to view later with YouTube Shorts watch as a stored video file.
• Collect source and storage links with YouTube Shorts download links for review or archiving.
• Export titles, thumbnails, duration, channel data, and format details with YouTube Shorts video metadata.
• Process a list of known Shorts with download YouTube Shorts in bulk and keep one row for each saved Short.
• Start a programmatic run with YouTube Shorts download API workflow using the Apify API.

This Actor does not search YouTube or crawl channels. It does not handle regular long videos, private videos, transcripts, comment contents, or MP3 conversion.

📦 YouTube Shorts files and details

Saved rows

Each saved row represents one resolved public Short. If the same video ID appears more than once, only the first URL or ID for it is processed. Later ones are ignored, even if the first one fails.

Rows include the video ID, title and channel details, duration, thumbnail, counts, the selected video and audio formats, and every kept format. Each format has a downloaded file link in Apify storage and its source media link. Fields can be null when YouTube does not expose them. Source media links may expire or stop working after the run.

🚀 Resolve known YouTube Shorts

1. Open the Actor input.
2. Add one or more public YouTube Shorts URLs or video IDs in shortUrls.
3. Choose the highest video quality to try in preferredResolution.
4. Optionally set a video file size limit in maxFileSizeMb.
5. Start the run.
6. Open the dataset and use mediaFileUrl to download the main file.

You can also start runs with the Apify API, schedules, or webhooks.

⚙️ Input

Input fields

Field	Type	What it does
shortUrls	array of strings	Adds public YouTube Shorts URLs or 11-character video IDs. Shorts, watch, youtu.be, embed, and live URLs work when they identify a Short. Each array item is one URL or ID.
preferredResolution	string	Requests the highest quality to try: 8k, 4k, 2k, 1080p, 720p, 480p, or 360p. The default is 2k. If no video is at or below this quality, the best available video is used. The saved row shows the quality that was available.
maxFileSizeMb	integer	Skips video files larger than this many MB. One MB is 1,000,000 bytes. When a limit is set, video files with an unknown size are skipped too. Leave it blank or use 0 for no limit. The input form prefills 3, but there is no schema default. Audio-only files are not limited.

The Actor supports batches of unique Shorts in one run. A bad or unavailable input does not stop the other inputs. If no video file fits your options for a Short, that Short gets a warning and no row.

Default input

This is the public input used by a successful current-beta default run:

{
  "shortUrls": [
    "https://www.youtube.com/shorts/8Zk5XzLJSAw"
  ],
  "preferredResolution": "2k",
  "maxFileSizeMb": 3
}

💳 Pricing

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing. You pay for each Short row saved with a download link and metadata. Inputs that do not save a row do not create this event. See the Pricing tab for the current event price.

🔌 Integrations

Use the Apify API to start runs with shortUrls and preferredResolution. You can schedule runs, export datasets, or send completed run data through webhooks.

❓ FAQ

What happens if a submitted value cannot be processed?

The run warns once for that value and says whether other values remain. It keeps any saved Shorts and completes with zero or partial results. The final summary shows the saved count and the number of failed values. A value without a saved row is not charged.

Which YouTube link forms can I submit?

Use Shorts, watch, youtu.be, embed, or live URLs that identify a Short. You can also submit its 11-character video ID.

What happens if I submit the same Short twice?

Only the first URL or ID for each video is processed. Later URLs or IDs for the same video are ignored, even if the first one fails.

Why is the saved quality lower than the quality I requested?

preferredResolution is the highest quality to try. YouTube may not expose that quality. Check bestFormat.quality to see what was available.

How can I tell if video and audio use separate links?

Check bestFormat.audioCodec. When it is null, the main stream has no audio. Use audioDownloadUrl for the audio stream when available.

What does the maximum file size do?

maxFileSizeMb skips video files larger than the limit, and video files with an unknown size. If no video fits, the Short gets a warning, no row, and no charge. Use 0 or leave it blank to keep every size.

Can a saved media link stop working?

Source links in bestDownloadUrl, audioDownloadUrl, and formats[].downloadUrl come from YouTube. They can expire or return an error later. For files that do not depend on YouTube links, use the Apify storage links in mediaFileUrl, audioFileUrl, and formats[].fileUrl. They work as long as the run's storage is kept.

Can I submit many Shorts in one run?

Yes. The Actor supports a list of unique Shorts in one run. An invalid or unavailable input does not stop the other inputs.

Do I need cookies, a login, or a YouTube API key?

No. The input accepts public Shorts URLs or video IDs. The Actor does not ask for cookies, a YouTube login, or an API key.

Does it search YouTube or download regular videos?

No. Submit Shorts you already know. The Actor does not search YouTube, crawl channels or playlists, or handle regular long videos.

Does it create MP3 files or merge video and audio?

No. It saves each kept format as it is in Apify storage. It does not convert files to MP3 or merge separate video and audio files.

Can I use the results in an automated workflow?

Yes. Start runs with the Apify API, schedules, or webhooks. You can also export the dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, RSS, or HTML.

📝 Changelog

v3.1 (30-10-2026)

• Save the media files in Apify storage. Download the selected files from the new mediaFileUrl and audioFileUrl fields, and each listed format from its fileUrl. bestDownloadUrl still shows the original source link.
• Add the new maxFileSizeMb input to skip video files larger than a size you choose. When you set a limit, video files with an unknown size are skipped too.
• Add viewCount and a formats list with the available video and audio formats and their details.
• Keep processing the other submitted Shorts when one Short hits an internal error, instead of stopping the run early.
• Reject a YouTube link that names two different videos.

v3.0 (02-10-2026)

• Saved rows no longer include channelUrl, requestedQuality, downloadType, videoDownloadUrl, videoFormat, or availability. Audio format details no longer include resolution or videoCodec. Use bestDownloadUrl, bestFormat, audioDownloadUrl, and audioFormat for media links and format details.
• Warn once for each submitted value that cannot be processed, and say whether other values remain.
