Uploading videos to Stepik

Uploading methods

  • Direct uploading of your video up to 500 MB (by adding a special step and using the Upload Video button);
  • Link from another website (by pasting a link from YouTube, Vimeo, etc.). We accept video up to 500 MB;
  • Uploading YouTube videos, etc. via iframe, without any restrictions for the video size. You can use it for a step of any type and add the video to a text or an assignment. 

Uploading via iframe

During step editing at Stepik, change to the html-editor mode.

In the window that appears, click "Copy" in the lower right corner".

Add to the step on Stepik the code that should look like this and save the progress:

<p><iframe height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/link" width="640"></iframe></p>

Please notice that Stepik uses https security protocol, so you cannot use iframe to upload a video from websites that work on http.

Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee the performance of videos uploaded via iframe from cloud storage, because such services can use their own security measures.
