  • Click the "Share" button, usually located below the video. In the window that appears, you'll find the "direct link," in the format https://video_hosting_site/parameters, and the "embed code." The embed code looks more complex and we are interested in the content starting with "< iframe..." and ending with "< /iframe>" inclusive.
  • To add a video from YouTube, Vimeo, Rutube, or Vk Video, simply copy and paste the "direct link" from the video.
  • To add a video from any video hosting site, copy the string "< iframe... < /iframe>" from the "embed code" field.

Paste the copied content into the "Video Lesson" field. It is extremely important not to add or remove any characters.

Please note!

  • When inserting an iframe code, its parameters are normalized for optimal display on the page, which may differ from the originally intended appearance.

You can set different access modes for your video on the video hosting site (restricted access, access by link, public access).
