Create Tool Enhancements - Embed Videos

Prior to this enhancement, content creators were unable to leverage existing video resources on the web to augment their learning materials, thereby limiting them to creating content from scratch or using multiple creation experiences.

With this enhancement, embed externally hosted videos from the web to quickly create engaging content by leveraging already existing materials.

To access this feature, go to ADMIN > TOOLS > LEARNING > CATALOG MANAGEMENT > CREATE TOOL.

To embed videos, copy the embed code of a video from the web and insert the copied embed code into the video card. Change the link anytime or delete the video to upload a video file instead.

How Does this Enhancement Benefit My Organization?

  • Authors can create more engaging content by utilizing embedding videos from the web.
  • Users can have a more dynamic engaging medium for visual learning.

Implementation

Upon release, this functionality is automatically enabled in production environment for all organizations using Create Tool. This functionality is not available during User Acceptance Testing (UAT).
