Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use 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 ## Vimeo & Dailymotion Toolkit — Apify Actor Scrape metadata, extract streams, search videos, crawl channels, and download from **Vimeo** and **Dailymotion**. All public functions work **without API keys**. ### Actions | Action | Description | Auth? | |--------|-------------|-------| | `vimeo_oembed` | Get metadata via Vimeo's oEmbed endpoint | None | | `scrape_vimeo_metadata` | Full page scrape (OG tags + JSON-LD) | None | | `extract_vimeo_streams` | Get HLS/DASH/progressive stream URLs | None | | `download_vimeo_stream` | Download video via yt-dlp + ffmpeg | None | | `dailymotion_api_raw` | Search + metadata via public API | None | | `dailymotion_search` | Search videos with pagination | None | | `crawl_dailymotion_user` | Get all videos from a user | None | | `download_dailymotion_stream` | Download video via yt-dlp | None | | `download_video` | Universal download (auto-detect platform) | None | | `multi_platform_search` | Search both platforms at once | None | ### Example Inputs #### Get Vimeo metadata ```json { "action": "vimeo_oembed", "videoUrl": "https://vimeo.com/347119375" } ```` #### Search Dailymotion ```json { "action": "dailymotion_search", "searchQuery": "python tutorial", "maxResults": 20 } ``` #### Download a video ```json { "action": "download_video", "videoUrl": "https://vimeo.com/347119375", "downloadQuality": "best" } ``` #### Crawl a Dailymotion channel ```json { "action": "crawl_dailymotion_user", "username": "Dailymotion", "maxResults": 50 } ``` ### Output Results are pushed to the actor's **default dataset**. Download actions also save the video file to the actor's **key-value store**. # Actor input Schema ## `action` (type: `string`): Which function to execute ## `videoUrl` (type: `string`): Full video URL (e.g. https://vimeo.com/347119375 or https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8ao5h7). Used by: oembed, scrape, extract, download actions. ## `videoId` (type: `string`): Video ID only (e.g. 347119375 for Vimeo). If provided, overrides extraction from URL for stream/download actions. ## `searchQuery` (type: `string`): Search term for video search actions (dailymotion\_search, multi\_platform\_search). ## `username` (type: `string`): Username for crawl\_dailymotion\_user action. ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of results for search/crawl actions. ## `downloadQuality` (type: `string`): Preferred download quality. ## `saveToKeyValueStore` (type: `boolean`): If true, downloaded video files are saved to the actor's key-value store for retrieval. ## Actor input object example ```json { "action": "vimeo_oembed", "videoUrl": "https://vimeo.com/347119375", "searchQuery": "cats", "username": "Dailymotion", "maxResults": 10, "downloadQuality": "best", "saveToKeyValueStore": true } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "action": "vimeo_oembed", "videoUrl": "https://vimeo.com/347119375", "searchQuery": "cats", "username": "Dailymotion", "maxResults": 10 }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("moving_beacon-owner1/vimeo-dailymotion-toolkit").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
