https:\/\/<yourcdn>.infiniteuploads.cloud\/elementor\/forms\/...\/file.mp4<\/code><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nThis URL is the direct link to the uploaded video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/infiniteuploads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/CleanShot-2025-12-01-at-23.25.17@2x-1024x349.png\")

- \n
- Watch the video online<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Download it for review<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Share the video with others <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Where the Files Are Stored<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Videos uploaded through Elementor Forms are stored in your Infinite Uploads storage under:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
elementor\/forms\/<form_id>\/<unique_filename>.mp4<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\nThese videos are delivered through your site’s Infinite Uploads CDN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Notes & Common Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Why don’t uploaded videos appear in the Media Library?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Elementor Form uploads bypass the Media Library and store files directly in the uploads directory (or in your Infinite Uploads storage if connected). This is expected behavior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Do I need to log in to Infinite Uploads to view the files?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
No. Each file has a direct CDN URL. You view or download it from the submission screen. There is no built-in privacy protection with this method of uploading videos (direct URL). A 3rd party plugin may achieve this, however. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Can I view all uploaded files from the Infinite Uploads Dashboard?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The fastest method to match videos to users is through Elementor → Submissions<\/strong>, since each file is tied to a specific form entry. If you have a Business plan, you can use FileZilla Pro or CyberDuck to connect to your cloud bucket directly, where you’ll find it in
