Channel and Playlists

The video channels and playlists are a superior way to share your content with your audience. No need to copy-paste the link to the video every time you upload a new video. Share your channel URL or invite members to access your content and view updates directly in their dashboard when new content is added.

Let's dig deeper to learn how to set up a channel.

Channel Settings

You can create a channel for your audience to access all your videos from a single place.

Enable Channel
