# How do I embed a Mindstamp video in Brightspace?

Topic: [Training, LMS and certificates](https://mindstamp.com/help/training) · Updated: 2026-10-05

## Short answer

Ask a Brightspace admin to add https://embed.mindstamp.com/* to **Trusted Sites**. Then copy the Mindstamp **Basic iframe** code, open a Brightspace editor, select **Insert Stuff**, then **Enter Embed Code**, paste the code, and select **Next** and **Insert**.

## Steps

1. In Mindstamp, publish the video from its **Share** page if it is not published yet.
2. Under **Embed**, choose **Basic iframe** and select **Copy embed code**.
3. In the course, open **Content**, select **Create New**, then **Page**. Any other Brightspace editor also works.
4. In the editor, select **Insert Stuff**, then **Enter Embed Code**.
5. Paste the code, select **Next**, then **Insert**.
6. Save, then open the page as a test student. Play the video and try fullscreen.

## Add Mindstamp to Trusted Sites

A Brightspace admin opens **Admin Tools**, then **Trusted Sites**, and adds https://embed.mindstamp.com/* to the list. The forward slash and asterisk allow all content from the site. If your videos use a custom domain, add it the same way. Until the entry exists, each student sees a prompt that the media is from another website and has been blocked, and must allow it. A D2L community thread notes that the prompt can be cut off in a small window.

## Paste in the HTML source view instead

You can also open the editor’s HTML source view and paste the code there. D2L’s Content Security Policy article covers Brightspace inside other sites, not embeds inside Brightspace, so it does not apply to this step.

## Add a SCORM object for a grade

- The new SCORM tool needs Content Service turned on for your organization. Without it, Brightspace uses legacy SCORM.
- On the Mindstamp **Share** page, under **Export**, select **Download SCORM package**. This needs a Core plan or higher. Choose **SCORM 1.2** or a SCORM 2004 edition and a **Completion Checkpoint** of 10, 25, 50, 75, 90, 95 or 100 percent.
- D2L says Brightspace is SCORM 1.2 and SCORM 2004 compliant and does not name an edition. Upload one package first.
- In **Content**, select **New SCORM/xAPI Object** and upload the ZIP file. One upload can hold up to 50 objects.
- Connect the object to a grade item so the score enters the grade book.

## If your account restricts embed domains

If you set **Allowed embed domains** in Mindstamp, add your Brightspace domain to the list. Otherwise students see “Video not available: Code 617”. See [restrict embed domains](https://mindstamp.com/help/restrict-embed-domains).

## Know which student watched

The embed does not receive the student’s Brightspace account. To see names in Mindstamp reports, add lead capture to the video so students enter their name and email. A SCORM package passes the name and ID from the LMS instead. See [viewer identity and anonymous viewers](https://mindstamp.com/help/viewer-identity-and-anonymous-viewers).
