Using video in marketing channels is a smart way to connect with people. The Video block includes a hosted video option for YouTube, Vimeo, or other video-sharing websites.
How hosted video works
Hosted videos are videos that are uploaded to YouTube, Vimeo, or other video-sharing websites. Video links are inserted into the design and direct users to a video-sharing website where the video plays. Copy the video link from the video-sharing site and paste it into the href field in the design.

Add a hosted video
1. Open your design
2. Drop a video block into your design
3. The Video block will be defaulted to Hosted
4. Add your hosted video link and image
- Paste your video link in the href field
If you paste in a full YouTube or Vimeo link, the editor will automatically add your video thumbnail and alt text from the link you used. Both the image and alt text can be modified.
If you get an error after pasting in your video URL, YouTube or Vimeo was unable to provide a valid thumbnail image. You will need to upload your own video image.
