Admin Embed - User Guide


About

Administrators can give users the ability to generate KMC-like embed codes. Embed code generation for Interactive Video entries is supported. Once enabled and configured, a new embed capability is added to the entry page that allows users to embed media using multiple embed options. Also included is preview short-link and qr code generation. The following sections outline user capabilities. 

This module is for both Theming and non-Theming users.

For technical support, contact Kaltura Customer Care. For all other inquiries, reach out to your Customer Success Manager.
