Add a Spotlightr video to a talk

Use a Spotlightr-hosted video for a pre-recorded talk or replay.

Written by Holly

You can use a Spotlightr-hosted video for a pre-recorded talk or as a replay. HeySummit accepts the Spotlightr Watch Page URL or the video ID, so you do not need to edit embed code.


​

Get the Spotlightr video link

  1. Open the video in your Spotlightr project.

  2. Select Publish, then open the Watch Page tab.

  3. Copy the Watch Page link. Spotlightr's sharing guide shows the current provider steps.

  4. Make sure the video has finished processing and its playback or embedding settings allow it to be viewed outside your Spotlightr account.


​

Add the video in HeySummit

  1. In your event dashboard, go to Content & Schedule > Sessions.

  2. Open the session's Actions menu and choose Manage Session.

  3. For a pre-recorded session, open Broadcast and set Broadcast Type to Pre-recorded. For a separate replay, open Replay, keep Will There Be a Replay? set to Yes, and select Choose Another if a broadcast recording is already being used.

  4. Choose Spotlightr as the provider.

  5. Paste the full Watch Page URL or the video ID, then select Save and Close.


​

Test the video

Use the talk's Preview action and select the relevant preview view. Confirm the video loads and plays while signed in as an event team member. If it does not, recheck the Spotlightr link, processing status, and playback permissions. For the full HeySummit workflow, see Set up a pre-recorded talk and Preview a talk page before your event.
