# URL Fetch

> Upload videos to Bunny Stream by providing a remote URL.

If your source video is already hosted at a public URL, you can pull it into your Bunny Stream library directly from the dashboard — no local download or manual re-upload required.

## How to guide

You can now upload your videos directly from a URL over HTTP/HTTPS into your bunny.net video library:

1. Click the **Upload a Video - drop down menu arrow.**

*Click 'Advanced' to input header and key values if they are needed to authenticate the HTTP/HTTPS request to download your video.*

5. The pop up window will close and **your video will start uploading** to your video library.

6. Once your video has uploaded, your video will still need to process and transcode. This may take a while pending the size and duration of your video.
7. Once finished your video is now **ready for playback.**

## Troubleshooting

Bunny Stream also supports **authentication tokens added to the URL extension** for uploading. You may experience issues with video URLs failing to upload due to authentication issues. These issues vary from platform to platform so please check your token, header values and syntax to authorize your video upload over HTTP/HTTPS.
