I’ve added a video to my Figma sites file, but when I play the site, the video doesn’t work. Can you help me with this issue?

Hey ​@Eduardo Talley, Figma Sites doesn't currently support native video uploads. However, you can do this by using a YouTube embed or the generic URL or HTML embed if your video is hosted on a different platform. Feel free to check out this Help Center article for more information: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/31242773374615-Insert-blocks-embeds-webpages-and-design-libraries-into-a-site

 

Let me know if you have further questions!

Hey ​@Leonor Castro Lopes! Is your video embedded or uploaded? Figma Sites doesn't currently support native video uploads, so if you aren't already, I recommend using a YouTube embed or the generic URL or HTML embed if your video is hosted on a different platform. 
 
You can learn more about this here: Insert blocks, embeds, webpages, and design libraries into a site
 
If you are using an embed but are not seeing what you expect, could you share a brief video recording of the issue so I have a better understanding of what you're seeing? Please be sure to include the whole window, showing the properties and layers panels and relevant layers expanded to give me added context.
