How to share my showcase
To share a showcase, follow these steps:
- Select your profile icon in the top right corner of the page and then select Watch.
- Select Collections from the dropdown menu. A new page will open where you can find your showcases.
-
Select the showcase and then select the Share button in the top right corner of the page to open the share modal.
⚠️Note: If you do not see Share, check your showcase's privacy settings. If it's set to "Hide from Vimeo", you cannot share the link to your showcase. - A modal will open with options for sharing with team members by email and copying the link.
- Select Customize at the bottom of the modal to create a custom URL or enter your domain for your showcase.
-
Select Copy link to copy the share link to your clipboard.
- Or, type a team member’s name or email address in the search bar to share a showcase directly with them. You may add a custom message and send an email notification in this step.
Interaction tools in showcases
Any video interaction tools (such as end screens, cards, and contact forms) that you previously added will be shown within your showcase to facilitate audience engagement. Once you’ve shared your showcase, your viewers will see your interaction tools when viewing the showcase (in the image below, the interaction tool is a contact form set to display before the start of the video).
Showcase viewing experience overview
When you open a showcase page, you can select any video within the showcase to watch. Clicking on a video's title will take you to a dedicated page within the showcase where you can view the video in a larger player.
For showcases using the Default or Featured layout, there is an Autoplay next video option on the right side of the page, accompanied by a list of upcoming videos in the showcase. If this switch is toggled on, the next video in the showcase will play automatically once the current video finishes.
In the Live layout, showcases have arrow icons on either side of the player that allow viewers to navigate between videos. If Continuous play is enabled, the next video will automatically start playing.
To locate a specific video within the showcase, use the search function at the top right corner of the showcase page.
⚠️Note: There is currently no way to automatically loop from the end of the showcase to the first video in the showcase.
