Prerequisites
curlandjq(both standard on Linux)
Search for GIFs
# Search and get GIF URLs
curl -s "https://tenor.googleapis.com/v2/search?q=thumbs+up&limit=5&key=AIzaSyAyimkuYQYF_FXVALexPuGQctUWRURdCYQ" | jq -r '.results[].media_formats.gif.url'
# Get smaller/preview versions
curl -s "https://tenor.googleapis.com/v2/search?q=nice+work&limit=3&key=AIzaSyAyimkuYQYF_FXVALexPuGQctUWRURdCYQ" | jq -r '.results[].media_formats.tinygif.url'
Download a GIF
# Search and download the top result
URL=$(curl -s "https://tenor.googleapis.com/v2/search?q=celebration&limit=1&key=AIzaSyAyimkuYQYF_FXVALexPuGQctUWRURdCYQ" | jq -r '.results[0].media_formats.gif.url')
curl -sL "$URL" -o celebration.gif
Get Full Metadata
curl -s "https://tenor.googleapis.com/v2/search?q=cat&limit=3&key=AIzaSyAyimkuYQYF_FXVALexPuGQctUWRURdCYQ" | jq '.results[] | {title: .title, url: .media_formats.gif.url, preview: .media_formats.tinygif.url, dimensions: .media_formats.gif.dims}'
API Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|-----------|-------------|
| q | Search query (URL-encode spaces as +) |
| limit | Max results (1-50, default 20) |
| key | API key (the one above is Tenor's public demo key) |
| media_filter | Filter formats: gif, tinygif, mp4, tinymp4, webm |
| contentfilter | Safety: off, low, medium, high |
| locale | Language: en_US, es, fr, etc. |
Available Media Formats
Each result has multiple formats under .media_formats:
| Format | Use case |
|--------|----------|
| gif | Full quality GIF |
| tinygif | Small preview GIF |
| mp4 | Video version (smaller file size) |
| tinymp4 | Small preview video |
| webm | WebM video |
| nanogif | Tiny thumbnail |
Notes
- The API key above is Tenor's public demo key — it works but has rate limits
- URL-encode the query: spaces as
+, special chars as%XX - For sending in chat,
tinygifURLs are lighter weight - GIF URLs can be used directly in markdown:
