🔧 Input

Loom Video URLs - paste one or more Loom video URLs. Both /share/ and /embed/ link formats are supported. Example: https://www.loom.com/share/e41353f2fe1c43eba6c6829693e0f2c5

Max Items - limit the number of videos to process. Free users get a preview of up to 10 videos. Paid users can process up to 1,000,000.

Include Transcript - enable to extract the full spoken text from each video. Not all videos have transcripts - check the transcriptionStatus field.

Include Captions (VTT) - enable to pull WebVTT formatted captions with timestamps, useful for subtitle generation or content analysis.

Proxy Configuration - optional. Loom works fine without a proxy. Only enable if you're processing a large batch and experiencing rate limits.
