HubDb Video

[mIIwaukee]

Hi,

I created a hubdb table for videos. There's a column that allows selection of a video file (mp4). When I want to display the table, I can't seem to display the file path for the video. Any ideas?

{{row.video}} shows the ID

Having a similar case, have you found any workaround since?

Hello @mIIwaukee,

to embed the video with hubspot you need to give the video a player:

{% video_player "embed_player" player_id="{{row.video}}" %}

Thanks Chris. I am looking for a file path url, not the ID.

@mIIwaukee you should be able to use the file_by_id HubL function to get the URL. Here's an example:

{% set file = file_by_id(row.video) %} 
{{ file.friendlyUrl }}

Thanks Stefen,

This was my thought too,  but it doesn't work. 

 {%- for row in table%}   

{{row.video}} 

{% set file = file_by_id(row.video) %}

{{ file.friendlyUrl }} 

{%- endfor %}

{{row.video}} outputs an ID

{{ file.friendlyUrl }}  outputs nothing

@mIIwaukee try outputting {{ file|pprint }} to see if there is anything that outputs. It may be that the video ID is not the same as a file ID unfortunately...

Hi Stefan,

Thanks, in this case it's NULL

{%- for row in table%}   

{{row.video}}

{% set file = file_by_id(row.video) %}

{{ file.friendlyUrl }} 

{{ file|pprint }} 

{%- endfor %}
