Adding a video to your page not only engages the user, but it humanizes the content on the page.

Videos cannot be uploaded to Cascade, but you can add a video by embedding or linking to it in many areas on a webpage.

Videos should be housed on either YouTube or Vimeo.

Embedding a Video in a Content Block

Jump to Adding a Video in the Sidebar

Get the embed code from YouTube Or Vimeo.
