Hey all, 

 

Is there any way we can embed TikTok videos in Community articles? 🧐

 

For example, I want to add this video > https://www.tiktok.com/@mayimbialik/video/7036071354772442414?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id=7147996066573747717 

 

Downloading & posting it through other video platforms (like YouTube) is not optimal because I want to refer to the creator. 

 

Thank you all, 

Savina

Hi @Savina at Yotpo 👋,

It looks like that this media type isn’t available to embed at the moment.

I will feed this back to our product team internally but also convert this to an idea so that other community members can vote on it!

Just one heads-up (and sorry for being a downer):

Depending on your local data privacy laws it might not be legal to embed videos from third-party sites like TikTok or YouTube as long as your community users don’t have the option to consent (or decline their consent) to being tracked through the embedding code.

Hi @Savina at Yotpo! I second @bjoern_schulze’s stand around data privacy concerns, especially when it comes to TikTok. Having said this, I’m curious to hear if other customers are interested in this and why this media would be useful to embed.
