Create Custom Media
As an Owner or Admin of an account, you can add your own custom media to a channel(Owner) or training posts(Owner & Admin) to make your content available to your organization and add to the hundreds of existing training videos that they have access to within RightNow Media.

The Custom Media window allows you to embed from popular sources like YouTube, YouTube Live, Facebook Live, Livestream.com, Vimeo and Soundcloud by pasting in the url or embed code into the "Embed" field. It will attempt to save a thumbnail based on your upload, or you have the option to upload your own image to serve as the thumbnail for your media.
