Need Help with Downloading Media from URL

Hi Make.com Community,

I’ve been using a Rapid API request to retrieve the media URL and caption for a post. However, I’m facing an issue: I can’t download the video directly from the URL without manually opening it and right-clicking to download.

Is there another API or method available that can handle a viewable URL and directly download the content?

Here are screenshots that will help




Hi @AGhela,

You can do another (authenticated) HTTP request to the location of the resource, to download the file:

Mind you, you should be authenticated to access the resource.

Cheers,
Henk
