Three ways to integrate video with Contentful

1. Embedding videos from external sources

To quickly and easily add videos to your Contentful website, you can simply embed videos from external sources such as YouTube or Vimeo. Simply copy the embed code provided by the video hosting platform and paste it into your Contentful entry.

2. Uploading videos directly to Contentful

If you prefer to host your videos directly within Contentful, you can upload your video files to the media section and then reference them in your content entries. This option gives you more control over the storage and management of your videos, but keep in mind that this may impact your storage limits and costs.

3. Using a video management platform with Contentful

For more advanced video management capabilities, you can integrate a video management platform with Contentful. Platforms such as Cloudinary or Vimeo’s API provide features such as video transcoding, playback optimization, and customizable video players. By integrating with these platforms, you can take your video content to the next level and provide a seamless video experience for your users.
