Can I use YouTube videos in Mindstamp?

1. Select New video, then select YouTube under Source.
2. Read the YouTube is for testing only! notice. To continue, select I understand and am only testing. To stop, select Use another provider.
3. Paste the direct link to your YouTube video and create the video.
4. Add interactions and test the idea with your team.
5. Before you publish, open the video, go to More and select Replace source video. Upload the original file or link another supported source.
6. Preview the video again and check that each interaction is still at the correct time.

The app states that YouTube videos may have playback failures and other issues at any time. Mindstamp does not control how YouTube delivers its video, so a video that plays today can stop playing for your viewers without warning.

Use YouTube to check that interactive video fits your content. Do not send a YouTube-based video to customers, learners or prospects.

Replace source video keeps your interactions, timings, design, settings, share link and embed code. You do not need to rebuild the video. Read how to replace the video file for the checks to do after the change.

Use the original file that you uploaded to YouTube. Upload it to Mindstamp, or link it from Vimeo, Wistia or another supported host.

• Transcripts work only for uploaded videos and MP4 links, so a YouTube-based video cannot have a transcript.
• Download source is not available for a YouTube-based video.

To link to YouTube from a Mindstamp video, you do not need a YouTube source. Add a button that opens your channel. See how to add a YouTube subscribe button.
