Getting Local URL from payload cms instead of Uploadthing url

[sherawat-Lokesh]

Hey i am uring Uploadthing Storage for my videos, When a video get uploaded successfully it return some values like Url, _key, etc. But there is one plroblem the payload convert the url which uploadthing returns to local url, For examplet the uploadthnig will return url like : https://ii6f9cec5l.ufs.sh/f/jt4nCu8PFcktO55GPaqDj361c8YpqvBkFsldo47hxGSei but payload is converting this url to http://localhost:3000/api/videos/file/Boat_13.mp4 this is causing the issue in my frontend i need uploadthing url instead of this.

this is the video collection :

import { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
import { GetVideoUrl, VideoReward } from '@/endpoints/video.rewards'

export const Videos: CollectionConfig = {
  slug: 'videos',
  admin: {
    useAsTitle: 'videoTitle',
  },
  upload: {
    mimeTypes: ['video/mp4'],
    disableLocalStorage: true,
  },
  endpoints: [VideoReward, GetVideoUrl],
  access: {
    read: () => true,
    create: () => true,
    update: () => true,
    delete: () => true,
  },
  fields: [
    {
      label: 'Video Title',
      name: 'videoTitle',
      type: 'text',
      required: true,
    },
  ],
}

This is the payload.config.ts , yes this is not complete i know ⬇️

 plugins: [
    payloadCloudPlugin(),
    // storage-adapter-placeholder
    uploadthingStorage({
      collections: {
        media: true,
        videos: true,
      },
      options: {
        token: process.env.UPLOADTHING_TOKEN,
        acl: 'public-read',
      },
    }),
  ],

this is the response of video collection

{
  videoTitle: 'dfgfgjthjgjtyj',
  _key: 'jt4nCu8PFcktO55GPaqDj361c8YpqvBkFsldGMNaSei',
  filename: 'Boat_13.mp4',
  mimeType: 'video/mp4',
  filesize: 30872861,

  id: '67dd73d34c65ef7d0dbfeb36',
  url: 'http://localhost:3000/api/videos/file/t_13.mp4',
  thumbnailURL: null
}

Hey @sherawat-Lokesh

If you want Payload to return the url of the item in storage directly, you can set disablePayloadAccessControl in your adapter config. See here for more info on what this does.
