Facebook Video Archive Checklist

A checklist for archiving public Facebook videos with source URLs, exported files, transcripts, and rights notes.

A Facebook video archive is only useful when every file can be traced back to its source. Downloads without URLs become hard to audit.

Use https://nowatermarkdownloader.com/tools/facebook-video-downloader to process public Facebook links, then store metadata with each export.

Minimum archive fields

Track source URL, page or profile, title, capture date, exported filename, transcript status, reviewer, campaign, and permission note.

Keep source context

Facebook posts can be edited, deleted, or restricted later. The source URL and capture date explain what your team saw at the time of processing.

Add transcripts

Use https://nowatermarkdownloader.com/transcribe for videos that contain speech. Transcripts make the archive searchable and easier to summarize.
