Watching a video wih branding from a specific channel

If you want to send out a link to video with the branding of a specific channel there are two methods of doing this.

Linking to a Video with an associated Channel

The only requirement for this to work is:

  • The channel whose branding you want to show on the video page must be added to the Channels when editing the video (for more information look at this guide).

URL construction is as follows:

[video url] + ? + channel=[node_id_of_channel]

Replace the bits in the square brackets with their actual counterparts.

Linking to a Video with any Channel

The prerequisite for this is you need either:

  • The anonymous access link or,
  • User Token Access link

both of these can be found in this guide. Once you have that you need to appended the channel= section from the previous section to end like this:

[anonymous access link / user token access link] + & + channel=[node_id_of_channel]

Adding the parameter to the end

The Ampersand (&) in the constructor above is important as it allows you to add another parameter to the URL without breaking the others.
