Microsoft Copilot Video Downloader

Use Microsoft Copilot Video Downloader with Hunt

Use Microsoft Copilot with HuntAPI to download videos, extract audio, and fetch metadata. Works well with Copilot Studio actions, custom plugins, and agent workflows that can call REST APIs.

What you can do

Paste a video URL in Copilot and get a downloadable CDN link
Extract audio only for transcripts or podcasts
Call https://api.huntapi.com/v1/media/metadata before downloading
Show live progress via the progress field (0-100) on jobs

Quick Start

Hunt downloads are asynchronous. Copilot (or your plugin) should:

Start download → receive job_id
Poll jobs until status is CompletedJob
Return result.response to the user

Start download

GET https://api.huntapi.com/v1/video/download?query=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID
x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY

{ "job_id": "0193443f-fb80-9d19-29ba-82bc77c7cd84" }

Poll status and progress

GET https://api.huntapi.com/v1/jobs/0193443f-fb80-9d19-29ba-82bc77c7cd84
x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY

{
  "status": "Running",
  "progress": 63,
  "result": null
}

When status is CompletedJob, read result.response (CDN URL).

Metadata only

GET https://api.huntapi.com/v1/media/metadata?query=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID
x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY

Synchronous: { "metadata": { ... } } in the same response.

Copilot Studio setup

Create an action / connector that calls HuntAPI with header x-api-key
Expose at least:
- GET https://api.huntapi.com/v1/video/download
- GET https://api.huntapi.com/v1/jobs/{id}
- optional GET https://api.huntapi.com/v1/media/metadata
Instruct the agent to poll every 1-2 seconds while Queued or Running
Never paste API keys into the chat UI if you can store them as secrets

Tips

Prefer video_quality=720p for long videos
Use download_type=audio for MP3 extraction
Do not invent download links; wait for CompletedJob
