How this will affect your organization:
In SharePoint, users will see the new video page templates in the site template menu for both Pages and News.
For the first time ever, a user will soon be able to create a page outside of SharePoint for videos stored on a SharePoint site where a user has editing access:
- In the Stream web app, a user with the required editing access can select the new Create video news post button under the Share dropdown menu.
- The user can review the new templates and then select Choose template.
- After selecting Choose template, the user will land on the page draft on the site where the video is stored.
- The user can create a SharePoint page or news post, highlight the desired video(s), and include related documents.
What you need to do to prepare:
This rollout will happen automatically by the specified date with no admin action required before the rollout.
