FAQs

What is an embed code?

Basically, it’s a snippet of code that you put on your website that displays as list of videos. An embed code pulls the video list from the original source, allowing you to display a video list without having to host the file on your website.

 

What is the difference between an embed code and a embed URL?

An embed code allows you to place a JoVE chapter/playlist directly inside of your learning or training environment. Most learning management systems such as Canvas, Blackboard, and Moodle require an embed code for JoVE content to stream.

A URL allows you to place a link in programs such as PowerPoint or Microsoft Word which takes a user to a separate page where they can watch a JoVE video.

Most of the time, you will want to use the embed code. However, there are some environments that don’t support embed codes such as Google Classrooms and MS Teams. In those instances, you can use the embed URL to still provide access to JoVE chapter/playlist.
