Hi yashar-2009, welcome to Thunkable! 🎉

Be sure to check out [How to ask Great Questions v2.0](https://community.thunkable.com/t/how-to-ask-great-questions-v2-0/2689983/1), the [Community Guidelines](https://community.thunkable.com/t/community-guidelines/78/8), and our [Getting Started Guide](https://docs.thunkable.com/getting-started/get-started) to make the best of your Thunkable Community experience!

As for your current setup, the “URL from uploaded file” block should upload the selected file to Cloudinary already. Unless you have a particular reason for using the API, I would recommend following the steps [here](https://docs.thunkable.com/blocks/app-features/files-blocks#connect-your-cloudinary-account-to-your-thunkable-project) to connect your Thunkable app to Cloudinary to easily upload images.

Unfortunately, Thunkable doesn’t support video upload to cloudinary in android. So I would love to know how to do this using the webapi instead.
