Hi Thunkers,
I am using cloudinary to use the video component but I keep hitting my limit on the free account. Is there any alternative cloudstorage where I can get a video link with the file extension
Example: [https://googlecloud.com/dw0zjoflk/video/upload/v1582989596/introduction.mp4](https://googlecloud.com/dw0zjoflk/video/upload/v1582989596/introduction.mp4)
I have already tried: google drive, drop box, one drive but the url never have the file extension included.
Thank you all for your responses.
Keep up the good work.

Hey @donavan.naidoofnw you might be able to use the YouTube API to retrieve and display your videos.
Take a look at @darren’s latest playlist here:
