Add a YouTube video to your emails

Merchants can now link a video from any email with the new Media block, which shows a poster image that opens the video.

  • Merchants can show products in use, such as how-to videos and launches, in their emails.
  • Every merchant now has the Media block.
  • A new *Media* block is in the email editor's block list, in Campaigns, Flows, and the Template editor.
  • Click *Media, choose the block, and click Insert*.
  • Paste a YouTube link in *Video link*. Instant makes the poster image from the video.
  • For a video from another site, such as Vimeo or the merchant's store, click *Add image* to upload a poster.
  • Shoppers click the poster to open the video.
  • Under *Custom*, you can add a play button, and set its colours and size, the padding, and the border.
