In this article, we will show you how to share a video in several different way.


Please note that you should have your folder security/permissions setup before sharing a video. For more information, please see:  Panopto - Folder Security/Permissions for Viewing and Downloading



How to get to the sharing "menu" for a selected video or folder

  1. Locate the video that is going to be shared.
  2. Hover you mouse over the videos thumbnail (video image icon).
  3. Select the share button. (example 3a applies to a folder)

This will open the selected videos sharing menu.


(When sharing folders, the step-by-step below are very similar with some options unavailable as they do not apply to folder sharing) 





How to share a video with a "Link"

        4.  Select "Link"

        5.  Copy the linked address.

        6.  Send the link to the recipients.






How to share a video with "Embed Code"

        7 Select "Embed"

        8.  De-check "Enable Watch in Panopto"

        9.  Select "Copy Embed Code"

        The embed code can now be inputted into Elentra.





How to share a video to an external user (non-QueensU email)


To share a video to an external user, we suggest using OneDrive. The security of OneDrive when sharing a video to an external user is more secure than Panopto. If you require assistance sharing a video via OneDrive, please contact QHS Media Servicers at (613) 533-6909 or email us at QHSIT@queensu.ca
