Embedding videos in rich text?

Hey WeWebers, last thread I can find on this topic was in 2022 so just checking - is it possible to embed videos (eg youtube) a rich text block? My use case is someone will be creating various documents that have different numbers of videos within them - ideally trying to keep the documents to one field in a DB (rich text covers 99% of use case, just trying to sort out videos).

Hi @oli :wave:

Apologies for the late reply.

It’s not possible with the rich text input at the moment because we’d need to add a Set Video action to the component actions:

I’ll create a product ticket with the improvement suggestion.

In the meantime, you can use the regular rich text element:

And display HTML content (including iframes)

Does that help?

Thanks Joyce! That’s super helpful, appreciate you filing the feature request. Will play around with the HTML solution to see if that works for now.
