Embedding videos in Help Center

Last updated on May 28, 2025

Chatwoot's Help Center supports automatic embedding of videos from multiple platforms. When you paste supported video URLs on their own lines (surrounded by empty lines), they will be automatically converted to embedded video players.

Supported Video Platforms

YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID or https://youtu.be/VIDEO_ID Copy URL from browser address bar or use "Share" button
Vimeo https://vimeo.com/VIDEO_ID Copy URL from browser address bar or use "Share" button

Important Requirements

  1. Empty Lines: Video URLs must be surrounded by empty lines (blank lines above and below)

  2. Standalone Links: The URL must be on its own line, not embedded in other text

  3. Must be a Link: The URL must be formatted as a clickable link in markdown (not plain text)

  4. Exact Format: URLs must match the exact patterns shown above

The video embedding system automatically detects these patterns and replaces the URLs with responsive video players that work across all devices.
