Using the Extract Audio as MP3 Endpoint
To extract audio from a video file as an MP3, you can use the /api/extract_audio_mp3 endpoint. This endpoint allows you to provide a video URL and optionally specify the desired bitrate for the output MP3 file.
The API processes the video and returns the extracted audio, enabling seamless integration into your applications.
- Endpoint: /api/extract_audio_mp3
- HTTP Method: POST
- Content Type: application/json or form data
curl -X POST https://www.ffmpegapi.net/api/extract_audio_mp3 \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY' \
-d '{"video_url": "https://example.com/video.mp4", "bitrate": "192k"}'import requests
url = 'https://www.ffmpegapi.net/api/extract_audio_mp3'
data = {'video_url': 'https://example.com/video.mp4', 'bitrate': '192k'}
headers = {'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY'}
response = requests.post(url, json=data, headers=headers)
print(response.json())Parameters for Audio Extraction
When using the extraction endpoint, you need to provide a few parameters. The primary parameter is the video URL, which is mandatory, while the bitrate for the MP3 output is optional.
By default, if no bitrate is specified, the API will use 192k.
- video_url: The URL of the video to extract audio from (required)
- bitrate: The desired bitrate for the MP3 output (optional, default is 192k)
