Video Component

Display videos from YouTube, Vimeo, Twitch, and more

Meet the new Glide Apps

Glide Pages are now Glide Apps. Please refer to this article for up-to-date information, as some of this documentation is outdated.

The Video component displays videos in your project from platforms like YouTube, Twitch, Vimeo, and more. To display a video in your project, you just need a video's URL.

Data

In the General tab on the right side of the Layout Editor, locate the Data section. Use the menu in Video to select the value from your data to display, or select Custom to enter a Custom Value for this field.

Hosting videos for the Video Component in Glide Tables or on Google Drive is not advised. Neither of those cloud storage locations is a video streaming service and may be unreliable. Instead, we encourage you to host your video on a streaming service (YouTube, Vimeo, etc.).

Options

You can customize the Aspect Ratio of your video by selecting this option in General > Options.
