You can reveal the url for your vtt/srt under the tracks tab for a specific video:
http://dashboard.jwplatform.com/videos/VIDEO_KEY/#tab=tracks-tab

To learn more about using vtt/srt files with the player, refer to these sources:

These can be uploaded on the ‘tracks’ tab while viewing a specific video record.
