I think I finally figured something out with this. I guess the public id includes the directory structure somehow although I could never get it to work either encoded or decoded slashes and spaces. I moved the file I wanted to concatenate to the top of the directory structure, and it finally worked.

Hi, Paul.

Note that folders within an overlay are separated by colons. Therefore, if you were to leave the public ID as it was, your URL should have looked like this:

https://res.cloudinary.com/djnkbzegl/video/upload/w_960,h_540,c_fill/l_video:ASU%20Online:Welcome%20Story:1000164958,fl_splice,w_960,h_540,c_fill/ASU%20Online/Welcome%20Story/gradintro.mp4

Hi David,

Thanks for your feedback. We do have it noted under the overlay section for images, but not currently in the videos section. I will share this with our Documentation team who will be able to add a note there too.
