For eleven of the thirteen platforms we never touch the files: the API returns direct links from the source's own CDN. The exceptions are YouTube — it signs its media URLs to the IP that requested them, so such a link is useless to you — and Twitch VODs, which Twitch publishes as HLS only; in both cases the file is streamed through us instead. Even then nothing is kept: the file streams through our server and is never written to disk.
You get a 4xx with a machine-readable error code, and the lookup costs 0.1 credits — a fifteenth of a download, because the work was done and came back empty. Bad links, unsupported sites, rate limits and our own failures cost nothing.
It depends on the platform and whether the source responds on the first try. We publish measured medians here only once there is enough traffic to report them honestly — we would rather show nothing than a number nobody measured.
Yes — that is the most common use. The direct URLs work with sendVideo and sendDocument, so you never touch the file yourself.
Per key, so each one carries its own limit. Create as many as you need from the dashboard and split traffic between your services or environments.
