Add a Vidyard video to a talk

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

Written by Jerica

You can use a Vidyard-hosted video for a pre-recorded talk or as a replay. HeySummit accepts the Vidyard sharing-page URL or the video ID, so you do not need to edit the link or keep its query parameters.


Get the Vidyard video link

  1. Open the video in your Vidyard library.

  2. Select Share, then copy the direct video link. Vidyard's sharing guide shows the current provider steps.

  3. Make sure embedding is enabled and the video's access or domain restrictions allow it to play on your HeySummit event site.


Add the video in HeySummit

  1. In your event dashboard, go to Content > Talks.

  2. Open the talk's ... menu and choose Manage Talk.

  3. For a pre-recorded talk, choose Pre-Recorded in the broadcast setup. For a separate replay, open the talk's replay settings and choose a replay.

  4. Choose Vidyard as the provider.

  5. Paste the full Vidyard sharing-page URL or the video ID, then save the talk.


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 playback is restricted, recheck that embedding is enabled and that your Vidyard access or domain restrictions permit the HeySummit event domain.


For the full HeySummit workflow, see Set up a pre-recorded talk and Preview a talk page before your event.
