About

Draft entries in Kaltura's Video Portal allow users to create an entry without uploading content. This is useful for creating entries in advance, or for collaborating with others on an entry.

Once the draft entry is created, the entry owner or co-editor can add content to it at a later time. This article will show you how to upload content to a draft entry in your Video Portal. 

Access the edit page

1. Go to the location of your draft entry (for example, your playlist page, channel or My Media).
2. Click the Edit (pencil) icon next to the draft entry.



You can also search for all draft entries using the Draft filter on the My Media page.



The edit page opens.
