Embed a playlist in Canvas

About

This guide shows you how to embed a playlist to share a curated selection of media assets on other web pages. The embed feature provides an HTML code snippet that you can easily add to any HTML page, making it simple to share your playlist and media player.

If the playlist is publicly accessible, meaning no login is needed to view the content, and you need to secure your content, make sure to embed the playlist on a page that requires a login.

These instructions are for non-Theming users. For Theming users, please see our article Embed a playlist - Theming
