Is there a widget to upload a video to for a page instead of using the embed video option?

Hey @msiegel… Great question. 

The only way to get a video into a page is via some kind of hosting service. This is due to some technical and security restrictions to ensure that videos aren’t extracted from Docebo and potentially passed around to unauthenticated users. 

The best alternative that I’ve found is using the embed code inside of an HTML/WYSIWYG widget and then adjusting the height accordingly. A result on my platform looks like:


Curious to know if you’ve found another approach or service other than the usual “unlisted video on YouTube”.
