Add an explainer video to a lesson

Give a lesson a direct video link so it plays above the lesson text on the web and in the app.

1. Open the course in the course builder and expand the module that holds the lesson.
2. In the lesson, enter the address in Lesson video link. It must be a direct https link to an .mp4 or .webm video file. A link to a video page, such as a sharing page, does not play here.
3. Save the course, then publish it as usual so learners see the change.

Where the video plays

• The web course player, above the lesson text.
• The induction course, on the web and in the app.
• The lesson screen in the app.
