I can't get the [action:openvideo] tag to play a mp4 video. I have the video URL link in an Airtable field called (image_url). I have also tried a Airtable attachment type field with the mp4 video uploaded into Airtable. It doesn't work in either case. I have even tried to hard code the URL in the tag (not what I want to do) but that doesn't work either. I don't see what I am doing wrong. Does the openvideo tag have a problem??

I'm not sure, here are some thoughts.
- Perhaps the "GET" should be "Detail" instead of "List"
- For this tag the URL needs to be either YouTube or ending in .mp4.
- Have you tried other tags like [component:video], [component:web-view], do they work?
I got the openvideo tag to work with a mp4 video if I accessed a file that isn't an attachment field in Airtable but on YouTube. I would like to store the video as an attachment in Airtable and then access it in Bravo app but that isn't happening.
airtable changed the way it handles urls to have them expire after 2 hours so hard coding them might not work. having said that if you are getting the url from a request it should be okay., have you tried looking at the debugger https://docs.bravostudio.app/connnec-api/debugging-api-issues/bravo-vision-debugger?
