Creating video components with Vimeo
Constructor LMS supports synchronizing videos stored in an external folder in Vimeo and videos stored in your Vimeo content libraries in LMS. The API (application programming interface) connection between LMS and Vimeo to transfer videos from a Vimeo folder is configured by LMS administrators.
As a content author, you can add videos to LMS in either of these ways:
- Add a new video to the folder in your Vimeo account that corresponds to the Vimeo library in LMS. This video will also be added to the Vimeo LMS library through API.
- Add a video right in LMS, this video will also be added to the Vimeo folder through API.
After you added a video, you can either insert it into a course as a part of this course or use it as a standalone activity (in this case you need to publish the video).
| Information | Only videos inserted in a composition allow for tracking learners' progress in watching them through Reports. |
