Video to URL

Upload a video and get a direct URL for your website, browser player or embed. Keep one file address ready for your next web publishing project.

Uploading publishes this file at a public URL. Anyone with the URL can access it.

Choose a file

Maximum file size: 100 MB. Supported formats: MP4, WebM, MOV, AVI, MKV, MPEG, MPG, OGV, 3GP, FLV. Your account storage and upload limits also apply.

Give your video a direct address for a website or media player. Upload a supported file and copy the public URL when it is ready.

How it works

1Choose a supported file from your device.
2Upload the file to create its public URL.
3Copy the URL and share or use it where needed.

Ways to use it

Add a training video to an organisation website using its direct URL.
Include an external video address in a presentation or online guide.

Use your uploaded file

For an organisation’s training page, test the uploaded URL and paste it into the video source field or HTML below. It opens the file itself, rather than a page you can customise.

Sample only — replace the example address with your uploaded URL

<video controls preload="metadata" src="https://example.com/video.mp4"></video>

Checks before sharing

If a browser downloads the clip or displays a blank player, check the codecs and your website’s media policy. Export a compatible copy if needed; the upload does not re-encode it.

Frequently asked questions

Will the URL work as a video source on my website?

You can use it as the source of an HTML video element. Check playback in your audience’s browsers, as support depends on the codecs in the file.

Who can access the uploaded file?

Uploading creates a public file URL. Anyone with that URL can access the file, so choose content you are happy to share publicly.

Will the file open in every browser?

Video playback depends on the browser and the codecs in your file. Images also need a supported format. Uploading does not convert or re-encode the file.
