Share Stream video with external users
Is it possible to share a video on stream with external clients (not on office 365)? Open public access is not an option for us as video's need to be protected from public viewing so authentication for non office 365 users is required.

Hi
we are a company who educate users in how to use the office applications, ofthen we record usage in films and are now using a third party program to stream these films to the customers. We would like to be able to stream these films from within the Office 365 environment.
Some would need to be accessed with password or login and some would need to be public, like teasers.
Hi Johndeu,
I'd like to see the ability to share access to a video or a channel with external users who do not have office 365 accounts.
Ideally we would need the two scenarios where:
- Access to the video would be protected via credentials (non office 365) for those external users.
- Access to the video would be open to public to view via a shared link
We usually embed video streams into our company wiki (confluence).
For us these are videos samples of games we are developing on behalf of clients. Therefore, video streams would need to be encrypted and would require authentication.

Stream Community, It would be great to collect more requirements from anyone who would like to share public external videos..
What types of scenarios, controls and settings would you want to see support for on Public Videos?How would you share the public videos mostly? Via links, email, or direct embed into your web sites? Are you targeting marketing videos, or publishing to your external web CMS? Do you need integration with an existing web CMS or Azure App services hosted web site?
What are your needs for authentication or encryptoin on the external videos?Please add thoughts, use case scenarios, and ideas to our Ideas thread on External Videos - https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Stream-Ideas/Public-videos/idi-p/4139
Would love to share Stream videos on LinkedINanonymous-user I am so surprised that Yammer is the only icon that pops up when you select "share" as Microsoft owns LinkedIn.
- We would need to be able to create externally accessible unauthenticated links to specific videos. We're a congress venue and want to share specific videos (e.g. location setups or marketing material) directly to potential customers.

+1 - this is huge and why we use any video system. If we cannot easily get content to our customers, without forcing their hand to play in the Microsoft space, it will force us to continue to use non-Microsoft solutions even though we are a software firm based on Microsoft platform.
