Which format for links to audio files to make them playable in Table

    We maintain a mysql database to manage over 3000 mp3 files. With a table, generated by WP Data Access, visitors of our website should be able to browse and listen to them. In the database the links to the mp3 files are stored in a field (type varchar, length 2083) in the format https://mydomain.de/xxx/sound/file.mp3

    For this I created a view in the mysql database. In wp data access the content of the field is not displayed when I set the field type in “Premium data explorer” to “Audio” or “Hyperlink”. If the field type is empty, then the URL is displayed correctly, but cannot be clicked ‘and the audio file cannot be played.
    What format must the content of the database field have so that it can be played as audio directly in the Wp frontend?
    Unfortunately, I have not been able to find anything about this either in the documentation or in the forum.
    Thanks for the great plugin and for an answer.
