Please note, this generates a PUBLIC LINK.

The word public is the important thing here. Unless you generate a public link, you won't be able to share your video in a module, or by email.


The URL of the video that plays when you view it from the Echo360 tab is NOT a public link. You won't be able to copy and paste that link and share it.
