How can I append the video id in the url of videolink in Salesforce?

Posted by PRANAV on August 18, 2016 at 1:51 PM

Hi All,

How can I append the video id in the url of videolink?

For eg: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6LULidOdA0
for YouTube link after ?v= video id, so how can I use this id and add to the Salesforce Visualforce page.

Thanks

Hi Pranav,

Here is the code,

String PagevideoUrl{get;set}

String VideoUrl = ‘https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6LULidOdA0’;

String VideoId = VideoUrl.substringAfter(‘?v=’);

PagevideoUrl = ‘https://www.youtube.com/watch?’+VideoId;

And use this PagevideoUrl on the Visualforce Page
[adinserter block='9']

Hello,

Click Setup | Customize | Knowledge | Settings | Check “Allow users to add external multimedia content to HTML in the standard editor” to ‘True’ – This will provide a new tool in the WYSIWYG editor on Rich Text fields to “Embed Media” into a Knowledge Article. You can paste the iframe code from YouTube, Vimeo and Dailymotion videos.

Thanks.
