Share videos with the Vidyard for Chatter integration (legacy experience)

Note: this article describes how to share videos using the legacy Vidyard for Chatter integration. As of May 1, 2020, this experience is no longer available for new accounts.

Refer to our new documentation for up-to-date instructions on sharing video in Chatter.

With Vidyard and Salesforce working together, any Chatter user can easily and securely share a Vidyard player with other Chatter users. You can use the customized Chatter Publisher to access your Vidyard players, or create a new player by uploading video content from your computer or mobile device.

Chatter users without access to Vidyard can upload videos to share in Chatter or share videos they have previously uploaded. Videos uploaded to Chatter are only available to Chatter users and cannot be viewed outside of Salesforce. Vidyard users can remove the Chatter restriction by logging into the Vidyard dashboard and changing the access control settings for a given video player.

Create and share a new player in Chatter

1. Log into Salesforce. 
2. Open Chatter. 
3. In the Chatter Publisher, click Video.
    
4. Click Add Video.
    
5. Drag a video file into the window or click Choose File.
6. Once the video has been uploaded, click Add Video to upload another video to the player, or click Save to finish creating the player.
7. Optionally, hover on the video and click the gear icon to edit the player’s name and description. Click Save and go back to Players to save your changes.
    
8. Optionally, choose who the video will be shared with (e.g. My Followers, Group, etc.).
9. Click Share. Once the video has finished encoding, it will be available for other Chatter users to view.
   
   Note: If your existing Vidyard players are not showing up within Chatter, you may need to ensure you have integrated Salesforce with a Vidyard group that contains players
