Control who can view or download a shared video

Choose whether a share link allows downloads, and manage who has access.

A share link controls how someone can use a video. You decide whether they can only watch it or also download a copy, and you can revoke access at any time.

Allow or block downloads

  1. Open the video and go to its share settings.
  2. Turn downloading on or off for the link.
  3. Save your change.

When downloads are off, the viewer can watch the video but cannot save a copy. When downloads are on, the viewer gets a temporary download link that expires after a while.

See who has access

Your share settings list the active links for a video. Each link is a separate way in, so you can keep one for a teammate and revoke another without affecting the first.

Revoke access

  1. Open the video's share settings.
  2. Find the link you want to turn off.
  3. Revoke it.

The link stops working straight away. Create a new link if you need to share the video again later.
