Sure! Could you give me a few minutes? I’m on my tablet and somebody’s currently using the computer.

For those playing along at home I figured it out…
Uploaded the mp3s directly into Airtable
Thanks @codeswept for your help!

Yes.
Basically if you upload an image directly to airtable without getting the link so that multiple users can acces that image, then only the user that uploaded the image will be able to see it.
But if you get its Cloudinary link, then itll be visible to all.

No, actually, if you upload an image to airtable everybody who has access to that airtable/ users of the app will be able to see the image.

but that’s only if the image is uploaded to cloudinary and its link is stored, right?

No, not necessarily.
If the column you upload the image to is an is under Attachments, then you don’t need to upload your images to cloudinary.

Hey Sasch
If you are calling files from Airtable, you will need to have internet connection for the app to work.
Another way is to upload files as an Asset in Thunkable. You don’t need an internet connection for the app to work if you do it that way. There is a 50mb limit for files stored within the app.
Good luck!

This is an old post. I would recommending starting a new post with your exact issue 😀

You have asked this question on the Kodular forum [here](https://community.kodular.io/t/cant-play-music-directly-from-airtable-attachments/187530). Why are you now spamming this forum?
