How to share video recording to external using Microsoft stream
- Mar 10, 2020
Patrick_lky Hi, this isn’t possible at the moment, if your asking can you share videos externally, this is on the roadmap, due towards the end of the year (Q4) though:
Microsoft Stream: Public anonymous external video sharing
Allow individual videos in Microsoft Stream to be marked for external public access allowing people to view the videos without a login. Stream admins will be able to control if this feature is enabled and who within the organization can make videos publicly available.
Just to add, it’s not clear if the above feature will allow you to add external email address to provide access to particular guests only, you’d think that would be an option.
This https://support.office.com/en-gb/article/-this-video-isn-t-available-when-external-user-views-shared-stream-video-884c54e3-0d1b-4233-a07a-9c42502162ab also provides a bit more context:
This error occurs because Stream can't currently share to external users.
To work around this issue, store the video in another location. For example, add the video to a SharePoint Online or OneDrive for Business Library location that enables external sharing, and then share the video to the external users.
Patrick_lky Looks like we're finally getting this feature! Stream is starting to migrate over to OneDrive and SharePoint. It appears to be happening in phases, with Teams meeting recordings being one of the first things to move. Seems you can enable this starting now from the admin portal, and then you can finally share your recordings with anyone.
