Introduction

As a media owner, you can create a public link and an embed code to be used for showing media in public websites. You can also disable the public link and embed code in order to remove access to the media file. Additionally, media that is linked or embedded publicly do not include comments or track viewer data. This guide shows you how to obtain and manage these links and codes. However, when you own a media file or a user has shared a media file with you, the link and code are also available when viewing media.

Steps

  1. Share Media

    • On the My Uploads page, locate the media, click the Options icon, then click Share Media.

 

  1. Create Public Links

    • Click the Create Public Link button.

 

  1. View Public Link

    • Copy the public link from the Public Link field.

 

  1. View Embed Code

    • Copy the embed code from the Embed Code field.

 

  1. Remove Public Links

    • Click the Delete icon to remove and disable public links, then click Done.

Additional Information

  • Public links and embed codes do not include comments or track viewer data.

  • The link and code are also available when viewing media shared with you.
