How to download from Xiaohongshu (RedNote)

Xiaohongshu (RedNote) is a Chinese lifestyle and discovery platform built around notes - 笔记 - which can be a photo carousel, a video, or a mixture with a written article attached. Because a large proportion of notes are photographs rather than video, the first thing to establish is whether the note you are looking at contains video at all. Its share links also carry an access token, which makes them unusually fragile if you edit them.

  1. Open the note

  2. Tap 分享 (Share), then 复制链接 (Copy link)

  3. Paste it complete

  4. Or use the web address

Read the step-by-step wording
  1. Open the note. Tap the note in the app so it opens fully. Check whether it actually plays - many notes are image carousels with no video in them.

  2. Tap 分享 (Share), then 复制链接 (Copy link). The share icon is at the top right of the note. Copy link gives you an xhslink.com short address, usually wrapped in a message of Chinese text.

  3. Paste it complete. Do not trim anything off the end. Xiaohongshu share links carry a token that is part of what makes the note reachable, and removing it can break the link.

  4. Or use the web address. On the desktop site, open the note and copy the whole address bar including everything after the question mark.

Worth knowing

Tips for Xiaohongshu (RedNote) links

  • Keep the whole link. The query string on a Xiaohongshu URL is not just tracking - it can carry an access token the platform requires.
  • Most notes are photographs. If nothing plays when you open the note in the app, there is no video behind it.
  • Share links can expire. If a saved link stops working, generating a fresh one from the app is usually enough.
