Once you click on the embed button you will be able to configure the embed code to:

This code will add an element to your website that will look like this:

IMPORTANT: The videos will start playing automatically once the session starts. Once the session finishes, it will take a few minutes for the session to be available on demand. The same code will play the video on demand once it is ready. You can leave it on your page or you can add the same code to your “video on demand” library.
