Simple configuration
How the Videos web part is organized
The component centers on a main playback area that displays the selected video alongside its title, release date, and description. A "Latest videos" panel and an optional "Suggested videos" section help users discover relevant content, while tag-based navigation lets them filter clips by category and clear filters in one click. Videos are stored in a Company Media list and organized through a Company Media Tags list within SharePoint Online.
Layout and playback configuration
The web part offers practical layout controls: toggle background visibility, choose a shadow style (High Contrast, Light, or Dark), and show or hide a custom title that defaults to "Company media." Autoplay is available but disabled by default. You can also set sorting criteria through a dropdown and adjust the sort direction with a checkbox, tailoring how videos appear without custom development.

Frequently asked questions
Which video sources can the Videos web part display?
The component supports videos from YouTube, Vimeo, and SharePoint sites. SharePoint-hosted videos are added through a direct URL pointing to Site Assets or another folder, letting you consolidate media from multiple platforms in a single interface on the intranet.
What information is required when adding a video?
Each video entry requires a title, duration, source link, tag assignment, and release date. A description, preview image URL, and a "Suggested" flag are optional; the suggested flag determines whether a video appears in the suggested videos area. The duration format is locale-dependent, using a comma on English sites and a period on Italian sites.
How are videos categorized and made searchable?
Videos are categorized using customizable tags managed through the Company Media Tags list. These tags integrate with Advanced Search, so videos are indexed and surfaced when users search the intranet, and the built-in tag navigation lets users filter the video library by category.
Can the appearance and behavior of the web part be customized?
Yes. You can toggle background visibility, select a shadow style (High Contrast, Light, or Dark), and show or hide a custom title. Autoplay can be enabled, though it is off by default, and sorting can be configured through a dropdown for criteria and a checkbox for direction.
