___________________________________________________________

When uploading a video from Youtube less than 60 seconds long, YouTube defaults the video to a "Short." Our current Quick Embed option doesn't support embedding Shorts, and you will need to manually update the link first. 

Navigate to the Short within YouTube that you would like to quick embed into your content.

Click the URL and change the word "Short" to "Watch." Press Enter on your keyboard to refresh the URL.

1. 📝Please Note: If you skip this step and try to update the link in Trainual, it will not work!

YouTube has varying privacy options that allow you to control exactly what can be done with embedded videos.

- Public: Anyone can view this video.

- Private: If you have significant concerns about the security of your data, you can make the videos on your YouTube private, which will only allow the video to be viewed in Trainual by team members who you have shared it with via YouTube. These team members must be logged into Youtube to view the video within Trainual. If you revoke a user's access to the video on YouTube at any time, it will not allow them to access it again anywhere on the web. 

- Unlisted: Most of our customers choose to make their videos "unlisted," which only allows access to users that have the link (or access to where it is embedded).
