Embed Media lets you embed resources hosted on other platforms (videos, audio, images, prototypes, forms, and more) directly inside your content.

Add media to your content

  1. Copy the shareable link or embed code from the source you want to embed
  2. Click the Embed Media icon in the editor
  3. Paste the link or embed code
  4. Click Insert

For most supported platforms a plain public URL is enough. You do not always need the platform's full embed snippet.

Supported platforms

You can embed content from the following platforms:

Video and screen recording

  • YouTube
  • Vimeo
  • Dailymotion
  • Brightcove
  • Vidyard
  • Wistia
  • Loom
  • VideoAsk
  • Tella
  • Parmonic

  • PingVP

Audio

  • Figma
  • Canva

Notes

  • If a platform is not in this list, its content cannot be embedded, even if that platform supports embedding elsewhere.
  • If an embed does not render, confirm the source content is public and that you are using a direct link to the item (not a search or profile page).

Yes, thanks for pointing this out, @dandre. It is true that a better messaging could solve this, I probably also would be confused by this rather generic message. I will share this with the team!

@aluciani You are correct, we made a mistake in that article (which I corrected just now). Spotify is not yet supported. I would encourage you to create an idea so we can plan to add it later on.
