Good place to store MP3 files?

Archived from the Bravo community forum (2021–2026). Some answers may refer to older versions of Bravo.

Does anyone know a good place to store mp3 files to use the mp3 URL on airtable.

Why not on airtable directly? If there is any reason you want to avoid it there, I would add on a server.

Hi Karla I have yet to figure out how to make the attachment play and haven't yet found instructions how to do this.

I have added the file to airtable and allowed the file to be used in the data binding area but it still doesn't play. url plays fine

Check or share you app files, I’ve used Airtable for it many times and it has to work.

I believe I have done this but still trying to find instructions to do this. Once i discover i will create a little demo video :)

Karla August 13, 2022

if you share your file / video with the exact steps you did and what isn’t working would be easy to find the problem ;-)

Hey Samuel, I didn’t get why you have a url and a mp3 file, which one do you want to play? I would start saying your naming should be improved:
- don’t use up and downs and spaces
- create simple unique lowercase names like audio audio2
- when you get to read that table this could be one of the reasons you aren’t able to fetch the data

- If the url is the same leading to the mp3, remove that field, you don’t need duplicated data

Karla August 13, 2022

- select only the variables you will use in your application in the data setup

no idea where up and down spaces applies, simple names i thought i did name it in airtable? not sure what references to what you are talking about

samuel August 13, 2022

i did this and still doesn't play, i deleted the url files field and only highlighted current data. 

thank you for your help. 
i am going to keep looking for an instructional video of how to set this up and maybe just keep the files on firebase until then.
