How to Embed Videos in Knowledge Base Articles

Comm100 Knowledge Base supports using videos in articles to enhance reading experience. You can add videos to your articles using an embed code instead of uploading the video files which affects the loading time. 

Note: To embed a video in your articles, you need to add it to a third-party video hosting platform like YouTube first. Local videos cannot be used in your knowledge base.

To embed a video, follow these steps:

  1. From your video hosting platform, get the embed code for your target video. For example, on Youtube, you can click Share and choose Embed to get the code.
