Embed video from a hosting provider directly in a datastore row. The user enters a video ID or URL; the platform renders the embedded player on any page that displays the row.
Conditional options
- Provider (Required) — which service will host your videos? Pick from the supported list (YouTube, Vimeo, etc.).
What's stored
The video ID or URL as plain text. The embed is rendered at display time, so changes on the host provider (e.g. video deletion) are reflected immediately.
When to use this vs. File Upload
Use Web Video when videos are hosted externally — saves storage cost and offloads streaming. Use File Upload (with Files Allowed including video types) when the videos must live inside ActiveManage's file store.
