Facebook Video Downloader & Facebook Reels Downlaoder API

Transform your media extraction workflow with our powerful Facebook Video Downloader API – the ultimate solution for anyone searching for a reliable Facebook video downloader. Designed to handle bulk processing (1000+ URLs and more), this API not only extracts high-quality download links for Facebook videos but also supports advanced features for both long videos and reels.

Overview

Our Facebook Video Downloader API is a robust tool for extracting essential media links and metadata from Facebook videos. Whether you need a quick download for a Facebook reel or a full-resolution download for a long video, our API delivers:

• Optimized Resolutions for Facebook: Download videos in 1080p, 720p, 640p, 540p, 480p, 360p, 270p, or 240p – the only resolutions available on Facebook.
• Video & Audio Separation: For high-resolution videos (where Facebook does not provide a merged stream), our API provides separate video and audio links, ensuring you get the best quality for your download needs.
• Progressive (Merged) Downloads: For low-resolution videos, receive a single merged audio+video link—ideal for quick downloads and simple workflows.
• Rich Metadata: Gain access to details such as original URL, requested and provided resolutions, download type, thumbnails, titles, authors, durations, channels, and more.
• Bulk URL Processing: Efficiently process 1000+ URLs at once—even import URLs from TXT files—making it ideal as a scalable Facebook video downloader solution.
• Residential Proxy Integration (Optional): To ensure maximum performance and overcome regional limitations, the API can be configured to use a residential proxy by default.

Key Features

• Multiple Resolution Options:
  Choose from 1080p, 720p, 640p, 540p, 480p, 360p, 270p, or 240p. Whether you’re a professional editor or a casual user, our API adapts to your resolution requirements.

• Separate & Progressive Download Links:

  • High Resolution Downloads: Returns separate video and audio links for optimal quality—perfect for users who require distinct streams for advanced editing.
  • Low Resolution Downloads: Provides a merged (progressive) link when available, simplifying the download process.

• Comprehensive Metadata:
  Every download delivers detailed information including:

How It Works

1. Input JSON Data:
   Supply your Facebook video URLs and configuration via JSON. If no custom proxy settings are provided, the API automatically uses default proxy settings to optimize performance.

2. Media Extraction Process:
   The API extracts all available formats from each video. It intelligently selects:

   • The best progressive (merged) stream for low resolutions.
   • Separate video and audio streams for high resolutions.
   • A backup progressive download link representing the latest available merged option (ideal for quick downloads).

3. Output JSON Data:
   After processing, you receive a JSON array for every URL containing all extracted download links and metadata—perfect for integration into your applications or workflows.
