Bulk‑Download YouTube Shorts: Step‑by‑Step Tutorial

  1. Prepare a list of Short URLs
    Create a text file (e.g., shorts_list.txt) containing one YouTube Short URL per line. This lets you process multiple videos in one go.

  2. Use Capsai’s Bulk Downloader
    Visit https://capsai.co/ and switch to the Bulk Download tab. Upload your shorts_list.txt file or paste the list of URLs.

  3. Select download options
    Choose whether you want MP4 video files or MP3 audio extractions. You can also pick output quality (Full HD or 4K if available).

  4. Initiate the bulk download
    Click “Start Bulk Download.” Capsai will queue each URL and process them sequentially, showing progress and any errors in real time.

  5. Monitor the download queue
    While Capsai works through your list, you’ll see individual status indicators (pending, processing, completed). You can pause or cancel any item if needed.

  6. Download zipped output
    Once processing finishes, Capsai generates a ZIP archive containing all downloaded Shorts (or audio files). Click “Download All” to save the archive to your computer.

  7. Verify your files
    Unzip the archive and spot‑check a few videos or MP3s in your media player to ensure quality and correct trimming.

  8. Organize your library
    Create folders named by date or topic (e.g., 2025-07-01_Social_Media) and move the downloaded files accordingly for easy access.

  9. Respect usage rights
    Only bulk‑download Shorts you own or have explicit creator permission to use. For your own uploads, you can also download directly from YouTube Studio under Content → Shorts → Download.

  10. Automate future downloads
    If you need regular bulk downloads, schedule a cron job or Windows Task Scheduler script to run the Capsai bulk downloader with your updated URL list - keeping your archive current without manual intervention.
