[rofe]

• Support for Videos (youtube or AEM hosted)
• Support for Slide Share
• Support for Podcasts

@avanishgandhi to provide an existing example for each media type.

[avanishgandhi]

Requested from the business teams.

My assumption here so that we want real examples and not nice to haves right?
If we use youtube and vimeo as video source for our videos.. we want sample of both types of videos as Helix platform will need to support embed code for both types of sources?

[rofe]

Yes, ideally examples of different media types used in theblog articles today.

@rofe - below are the three sample provided to show samples.

@avanishgandhi thanks! Do you you also have an example of an "AEM hosted" video as mentioned in the description above?

Slideshare works in helix-embed: https://adobeioruntime.net/api/v1/web/helix/helix-services/embed@v1/https://www.slideshare.net/adobe/adobe-digital-insights-holiday-recap-2019?ref=https://cmo.adobe.com/

But we need to whitelist the URL pattern in helix-pipeline

YouTube, SlideShare and SoundCloud are all working now:

@rofe could we set up a persistent browser based test for the embeds? They can break if:

• any of the sites change their markup
• iframely has a bug
• helix-embed has a bug
• helix-pipeline has a bug
• word2md has a bug
• an angry god just wants to see us suffer

@rofe I added AEM videos as i currently see videos on CMO Skyline instance of AEM. I asked Biz team and they could not recollect if they have used any of the videos from AEM. I am asking others to see if these video are ever referenced in articles

[avanishgandhi]

Can we also do Demo of User stories we complete? That we way we can show Biz team of the progress we are making.
thanks
Avanish

I remember there being a reference search in AEM Assets.

If you give me a test page with examples of all supported embed types, I can set up the monitor script and automation in helix-embed.
