I put a You Tube URL video link in my Airtable field and it loads up and plays in my app. I put a different URL video link that is not a YouTube URL and I get nothing. I am using [action:openvideo] Bravo tag in Figma and binding it in Bravo to a field in my Airtable table. Why would a YouTube video link work but not from other sources (firebase, pcloud) where video is stored?

Hi ,
As I understand, you're trying to add a video URL link to your app. Can you tell me what's the format of the video you're trying to use?
For it to work, the ending part of the video URL should be .mp4 if it's not a Youtube URL link.

Hope it helps!😊
Marielle, thanks for your help. Your advice and video did help. My links were not ending in mp4. I was doing a data binding to an Attachment field (with a video) or an URL field in Airtable but apparently neither one returns on URL ending in mp4 to play the video in my app. It would be nice to store my videos in Airtable but if I can't play them it is a no go.
Hello again,
If your videos don't have .mp4 format, you also have the option to upload them to an online service that generates an .mp4 URL like https://aws.amazon.com/es/s3/ or any from this list: https://www.videohostings.com/
Once you have the new URL ending with .mp4, upload them to Airtable and you should able to play them.
