Please note that what you see in your account may differ from some of the steps outlined in this article. The "Campaigns" section in your ActiveCampaign account has been updated to say "Email."

You can use the Video block to add a video to your direct and automated campaigns.

=== How the Video block works ===

You'll be asked to supply the video's URL when you add the video block to your campaign. Once added, the Video block will generate a screenshot from your video and display it in your email with a Play button. When contacts click the Play button in your email, a new window or tab will open where they can view your video.

The video content block only works with videos hosted on YouTube or Vimeo that are made public. If you cannot host your video on YouTube or Vimeo, check out our suggested workaround below.

Note that it's not possible to embed a video directly into your emails. This is because most email clients will not display your video and it can cause your email to be flagged as spam.
