This tutorial presents the following topics. Click a timestamp to jump to that part of the video.### Introduction
{table:class=tutorial-bullets}|  | 
| --- | --- |
|{videotime:id=media1 :min=0 :sec=00 :player=cld} | To stitch two videos together, you can use Cloudinary's [video transformation capabilities](video_trimming_and_concatenating#concatenating_media).
|

### Install and configure the Node.js SDK
{table:class=tutorial-bullets}|  | 
| --- | --- |
|{videotime:id=media1 :min=0 :sec=20 :player=cld} | First, [install and configure the Cloudinary Node.js SDK](node_configuration_tutorial) in your Node.js app.
|

### Create the URL to concatenate the videos
{table:class=tutorial-bullets}|  | 
| --- | --- |
|{videotime:id=media1 :min=0 :sec=27 :player=cld} | Start with both of your videos [uploaded](upload_images) to Cloudinary. Then you can specify their public IDs in the code that creates the URL for the spliced videos.  For example, to splice the `samples/elephants` video with the `samples/sea-turtle` video:
|

```nodejs
const videoUrl = cloudinary.url('samples/elephants.mp4', {
  resource_type: 'video',
  transformation: [
    {
      flags: 'splice',
      overlay: 'video:samples:sea-turtle',
    },
    { flags: 'layer_apply' },
  ],
});
```

See the full code example in [GitHub](https://github.com/cloudinary-community/cloudinary-examples/blob/main/examples/node-transformations-effects/video-splice.js).

### Check the resulting URL
{table:class=tutorial-bullets}|  | 
| --- | --- |
|{videotime:id=media1 :min=1 :sec=51 :player=cld} | Open the resulting URL in a browser to see the sea-turtle video following straight on from the elephants video.
