Incorporate Videos & Files
Embed videos, images and files on the pages of your workflow to provide users more guidance or visuals.
Add Videos To Your Workflow
To embed a YouTube or Vimeo video into your workflow, you should:
- Go to your YouTube or Vimeo video, and get the shareable link.
- Use the ID of that URL (the end of the URL) between brackets like this: [YOUTUBE urlhere] or [VIMEO VideoIDhere] and add this where you want the video to appear in your workflow.
Example
If your URL is https://youtu.be/ee1j5a1_Stk, you will use: [YOUTUBE ee1j5a1_Stk].
Here's how it looks on your screen:

Add Images and Files
Images and files work the same way, except that you first need to load your image or other file, as follows:
- Add your image file to Documate under Dashboard > Files > Images
- Reference the file name where you want it to appear in your document like this:
[FILE FileName.png]
If you want your file to be larger, you can amplify it to a certain percentage of the original file. For example, the following will render an image that is 200% of the original file size:
[FILE FileName.png, 200%]
