    Hi tenzin,

    Embeder cannot handle all data types. Currently audio and video files are not supported as noted in the link you refer to. You should organize audio playing in your site by yourself. Selecting particular file or folder can be achieved using Chooser too.

    Good luck.

tenzin, You can take a look on an example here to how Dropbox Chooser can be used to implement some player as well as for anything else (just select appropriate settings/fields) on Bubble.io. Chooser is usable for mobile as well for desktop apps. 😉

Is this a bubble plug-in or was this built straight into the app? Also, do you know who created this and if I’d be able to see the backend set up in the editor?

    Hi again tenzin,

    As far as I can see you have seen already the answers of question you set. (sorry - I didn't saw your post earlier)

    Anyway... For someone interested in, more info can be seen here. There are links to the test page (posted earlier) and editor (where the example setup could be seen). 😉

    Good luck.

      Yes, I purchased the plugin and had an authentication issue in Test-flights OS. I emailed the creator of the plugin. Did you get my email?

        Hm.. Are you able to use the same browser to select something while using the official documentation page? 🧐 (select the same button there) I don't have access to such browser right now. Also, did you check the support state (including on the test page)?

         

        Add: Another reason could be if you use browser different than the default one on mobile device! I don't know why but as seems mobile devices do open Dropbox Chooser using the default one (or letting choose - depending on your settings). If the base page and the chooser are on different browsers they cannot communicate between! It's likely that to be the issue. Can you check?
