Hi all, I was guessing if, for the componant “video”, we could write a url of another platform than Youtube ? I tested with the url of a Loom video for example but it didn’t worked, the video dont play. So that my question : Is youtube url the only accepted url for the video component ? And if no, what others platform we can use ? ---

No guarantees on what works or doesn’t work, but make sure you are using the actual url for the video and not the url for the page that the video is on. You may have to inspect the page code to find the url. ---

Youtube, Vimeo or any URL with .mp4 will work.
