Play Video

Description

The Video feature allows you to show your leads or customers any video content as part of your Campaign. As of now, OnSpot Social is configured to run Vimeo videos only, so you will need a Vimeo account in order to show videos in your Campaign.

Configuration Tips

Read the instructions below for more information on creating & integrating your Vimeo account into OnSpot Social. Once you have a Vimeo account you can simply enter your login credentials for Vimeo into the Video Player configuration screen within the Web Admin and that will automatically pull all of your videos from Vimeo into OnSpot Social. You can then choose which video you'd like to display for users.

If you want to allow users to skip watching the video you can simply select the 'Allow video to be skipped' setting. By selecting this option buttons will appear on the bottom of the screen (under the video) which will allow the user to skip the video. If not enabled then the customer must watch the entire video before proceeding.

Also, we recommend hiding the disclaimer message which appears at the top of every Campaign screen. You can take advantage of this setting by selecting the 'Hide disclaimer while playing video' setting.
