Goal: A user can create a post including any version of a youtube or twitch URL. When the post is created it appears in a repeating group and the link appears as an embedded video. 

Current State: The entire site is already built using a combination of airtable and bubble.io. This is the last feature that I need. 

Work: I am open to ideas. What I know right now is that it can be done either with a Regex Formula or JavaScript Automation using the video id. 

Budget: Hopefully, under $200. But we can discuss it, based on your idea.

Roger that, here

And the formula used is:

IF(
FIND(
"twitch.tv",
{Embed Link Examples}
),
"https://clips.twitch.tv/embed?clip=",
IF(
OR(
FIND(
"youtube.com/",
{Embed Link Examples}
),
FIND(
"youtu.be/",
{Embed Link Examples}
)
),
"https://www.youtube.com/embed/"
)
) &
SUBSTITUTE(
REGEX_EXTRACT(
{Embed Link Examples},
"[^/]*$"
),
"watch?v=",
""
)

The only way I can think of doing this involves having a list of the possible URL patterns and just hardcoding it really.  Do you have a list like that?

I am ok with hardcoding. I figured for the first solution I would have to. Here are the different versions of links I think I'll need to cover. Please let me know what you think.
