RedGifs Bulk Video Downloader

RedGifs Bulk Video Downloader

RedGifs Downloader Built for Bulk Video Workflows

This actor is designed for people who need more than a single manual download button. It turns RedGifs pages into clean dataset rows that can be exported, filtered, automated, scheduled, or connected to other Apify workflows.

Use it to process individual RedGifs URLs, bulk URL lists, iframe URLs, raw IDs, or search results. By default, it keeps runs lightweight by extracting metadata and direct downloadable MP4 links. When you need files stored by Apify, enable file downloads and the actor can save selected videos to Apify key-value storage and return clickable storedFileUrl links.

Features

• Bulk process RedGifs watch URLs, iframe URLs, and raw RedGifs IDs
• Search RedGifs and return matching video results
• Extract direct MP4 URLs from RedGifs API responses
• Select preferred quality: best, HD, SD, or silent
• Return normalized metadata including title, description, tags, dimensions, duration, thumbnails, and canonical URL
• Generate clickable download links in the Apify dataset
• Optional Apify-hosted file storage with storedFileUrl
• Optional ZIP creation for smaller RedGifs batches when file downloads are enabled
• Works as a no-code Apify actor, scheduled job, API endpoint, or automation step

Benefits

• Turn RedGifs video pages into structured rows for export or automation
• Extract direct video links without maintaining your own RedGifs integration
• Keep costs lower by using direct-link extraction as the default mode

• title
• description
• duration
• width
• height
• tags
• thumbnailUrl
• availableFormats
• selectedFormat

Download Options

Default mode returns direct RedGifs MP4 links. This is the fastest and cheapest workflow for most users.

If downloadFiles is enabled, the actor downloads selected videos into Apify key-value storage and returns a clickable storedFileUrl for each file. For RedGifs, ZIP export can also be useful for small batches, but individual file links are the primary download path.

FAQ

Can I download multiple RedGifs videos at once?

Yes. Paste multiple RedGifs URLs, iframe URLs, or IDs into the input and the actor returns one structured result per processed item.

Does this return direct MP4 links?

Yes. The actor extracts direct RedGifs media URLs where available and includes the selected URL in directVideoUrl.

Can Apify host the downloaded files for me?

Yes. Enable downloadFiles to save selected videos into Apify key-value storage and receive clickable storedFileUrl links.

Is ZIP supported?

Yes for smaller RedGifs batches when file downloads are enabled. For most workflows, per-file download links are simpler and more reliable.

Is this affiliated with RedGifs?

No. This actor is an independent tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by RedGifs.
