Access rights to viewing a video in a Sharepoint Site
Hello,
I created a SharePoint site and invited some of my colleagues (i.e. internal users) to the site. See image below. Even though this person is an internal user, he still has to request access to the video. Can you tell me why? The goal is for all users who have access to the Sharepoint site to not have to request permission to view videos. Thanks.
Hello Ronald_Santos
ok, now it's more cleare. When it's a iframe, then the user need access to the stream video, i know, it's a little bit complicated to understand, so it's easier to use the new Stream (on SharePoint). It's the new way to manage videos in your company and the old service are retired.
More informations around Stream (on SharePoint) and about the migration from the old classic Stream: https://learn.microsoft.com/de-de/stream/streamnew/features-new-version-stream
When you save your video in a SharePoint library, you can use the "File and Media" web part to show your video.
Hope this helps.
Best, Dave

Hello Ronald_Santos
please make sure, that the video is stored on this site and that the users have access to the library...or video. You can check the permissions in your library or direct on your document througt manage access panel > https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/see-who-a-file-is-shared-with-in-onedrive-or-sharepoint-51bb79a9-b696-410d-a7a7-c320e541272d .

- Hi David, thanks so much for answering my question. This direction is clear. I've always been a bit confused with access rights to videos, so I am grateful. Please see screens shot below. The video in question which has access rights issues is displayed on the Sharepoint site in question in an iframe. The source of the video is our Office 365 Stream service. I like the presentation where the user sees a frame of the video.
If I do as you recommend, can I use an iframe to display the video which will now be contained in the Sharepoint Library? Many thanks again.Hello Ronald_Santos
