    Permissions required to access videos

    I'm using Umbraco v7 on a Windows 2008 R2 server with IIS7.

    My customer requires some videos to be available only to Members. Easy to do this by putting the links to the videos on a page only available to Members but the files are still available directly via their URLs to anybody.

    How do I prevent this? Perhaps this is an IIS question rather than Umbraco but I would appreciate it if you could give me some advice.

    Thanking you in anticipation.

    Roger

    Hi Roger,

    Are you storing your video in Umbraco Media section? You can restrict access to video folder on IIS level, and get video urls only via some controller.

    Thanks for your reply, Alex.

    Yes, I'm storing the videos in a Umbraco Media folder.

    How do I restrict access at IIS level and get the URLs only via a controller?
