Tell us what you are trying to do?

I'm building a site that will require a large amount of video uploads, I need to offload them to a storage service like amazon S3.

Is there any documentation that you are following?

I'm looking at using ninja forms with the File Uploads add-on, links below:

What is the link to your site?

Currently working on it locally.

My question is whether or not I'd be able to include this functionality in a toolset form. Users will be creating profiles with videos, so if I need to use the ninja form to offload the video, then I'll need a way to pass the form data into the custom fields created in toolset. Please correct me if I'm wrong, or if you have a best practice for this type of functionality.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

There is a known issue for us and here is the errata page with all details:
- https://toolset.com/errata/issues-with-saving-images-and-media-fields-in-toolset-forms-when-using-amazon-s3-and-cloudfront-plugins/

We we require some additional code using the Toolset Form's hook "cred_save_data" and here is the example of that I shared with the following reference ticket:
- https://toolset.com/forums/topic/featured-images-disappearing/#post-2001811

We do not have much exposer with ninja forms - how exactly you want to use that with Toolset?

Here is the plugin that you may use that serve the same purpose I believe:

Thank you Minesh, I've looked at the links you provided, and I will give this workflow a try. I'm not married to the ninja forms plugin, so I will look into the other plugin you suggested. I am a little worried about a work-around that is over 3 years old as I'm sure you can understand.

I will test the solution you provided and let you know if there are further issues that pertain to Toolset itself.

Thanks again.

Ok - you can try the workaround and try to adjust the code as per your requirement and please let me know if you require further assistance.

Thanks Minesh, I haven't been able to test yet but I will provide feedback when I do.
