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 another video-sharing website.
How does hosted video work
Hosted videos are videos that are uploaded to YouTube, Vimeo or another video-sharing website. 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.
