I am trying to play the video uploaded in my google drive. But I want the users to see my video without viewing the url at the top, restricting the user to take screenshot, add shortcut to drive. Kindly guide me to fix this issue. ---

Hello @gjofficestaff1cg The URL of the video must end in `.mp4` , `.mov` , etc., so videos uploaded to Google Drive and other video-sharing sites may not work. ---

I am trying to play video in the Thunkable app to prevent the user from viewing the url or sharing and downloading the video. I tried using web component, but my video is stored in my drive. So It’s not playing. The format is not compatible. Is there any another way to play the video in Thunkable app itself. Kindly guide me fix this issue. ---

@gjofficestaff1cg Please don’t create new posts for the same issue. Unfortunately, Google Drive doesn’t work. Have you tried uploading your videos to Cloudinary? ---
