Introduction

What Is Importly?

Importly is a developer-friendly API that handles the complex process of fetching and processing media from public URLs—so you don't have to. From rotating proxies and retry logic to storage, Importly offloads the heavy lifting of media ingestion for AI applications, content platforms, and more.

Key Highlights:

• URL to Media: Provide a public URL, and Importly seamlessly fetches the video or audio.
• Storage & Retention: Keep files on Importly for up to 7 days.
• Proxies & Retries: Avoid rate limits or blocked requests automatically (or supply your own proxies).
• Cost Transparency: Pay only for the MBs downloaded—track usage with precise credit accounting.
