Embed media allows you to embed resources (videos, images, tweets, etc.) hosted by other platforms in your content.

 

Add media to your content

1. Copy embed code from the source you want to embed
2. Click Embed Media icon in the editor
3. Paste the embed code
4. Click Insert

 

Supported media

A lot of media can be embedded in your article from major platforms like:

  • 5min.com
  • Archade.software
  • Blip.tv
  • BlueWillyWig
  • Brightcove
  • Canva
  • CodePen
  • CollegeHumor
  • Daily Motion
  • Deezer
  • Figma
  • Funnyordie
  • Giphy
  • iorad
  • Hulu
  • JSFiddle
  • Livejournal
  • Loom
  • Metacafe

  • Scribd.
  • Soundcloud
  • Spotify

  • Viddler.
  • VideoAsk
  • Vidyard

Note: When embedding media use the direct browser URL (e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oxv6IRcuNaI) and not the embedded URL (https://www.youtube.com/embed/Oxv6IRcuNaI - mind the /embed/)

    @dandre what are you trying to embed, not all providers are supported :)

    edited my response. Looks like it"s picky with youtube URLs. I had to reformat the URL to make it work.

    @Julian

     

    The problem in your case is that the owner of the video has disallowed embedding. There is no good way to tell except by using a site like this - enter the video ID (which is rBJLoYd8xak in your case). you can see this video has been restricted from embedding (see below)

     

    The problem is that for *any* video error inSided shows the same error stating the domain is not supported. They should update the error to be more generic or provide better guidance somewhere

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Thats very clear, thanks a mil!

    Hi @dandre some great advice here on how to check if a URL is supported for embedding. 

     

    Do you know of one for Vimeo?

    @aluciani You are correct, we made a mistake in that article (which I corrected just now). Spotify is not yet supported. I would encourage you to create an idea so we can plan to add it later on.
