b fdbbbbbbEmbed Dropbox videos to any Pop-up template to deliver more information to your users. The video can be embedded in the description section. For more information on Whatfix Pop-up templates see, Choose the Pop-up template.
Step 1: Get the video embed code
Dropbox does not have an in-built embed option to insert videos. However, we can manually create one.
Use the following steps to get the video embed code:
-
Go to the location where the video file is located in your Dropbox account.
-
Hover your cursor over the video and click the Copy link icon.
-
Paste the copied link in a text editor.
-
Remove any parameters after the question mark and replace it with raw=1.
-
Add the edited video link to the src parameter in the following code snippet to get the embed iframe link.
<iframe src="video_link" height="480px" width="640px" allowfullscreen></iframe>
The final embed link looks like this.
Step 2: Insert the video embed code in the Pop-up using Visual Editor
Use the following steps to insert the video embed in your Pop-up:
-
On the Whatfix Guidance dashboard, click Widgets.
-
Click Pop-ups.
-
Hover your cursor over the Pop-up segment you want to configure, and then click the Edit icon.
-
In the Description section, place the cursor where you want to add the video and double-click to open the Rich Text Editor.
-
Click the + icon. The Add Component dialog box opens.
-
On the Add Component dialog box, click Video.
-
Click the embed code icon.
-
Paste the embed code and click Insert.
-
Finish creating the Pop-up.
