Embed Zoom Clips into Docs

Although I can embed videos directly uploaded into Zoom Docs, and YouTube videos, I don't think I can embed videos I have published into Zoom Clips. I can link to it, but I want to be able to embed it. The option to embed is there, but I don't think it works. When I embed, I see it in my Zoom Docs. But when I try to view a published Doc, the video isn't embedded there, and that's where I want it to work. Any ideas? Is this possible? A feature request? A bug?

Hi Ravi8me! You’re right — right now, Zoom Clips can appear while editing a Zoom Doc, but the embed doesn’t carry over once it’s published. That’s expected behavior for now since published Docs restrict certain embedded content types for security and access reasons.

Here are a few alternatives and workarounds you can try:

  1. Link directly to the Clip — simplest option. Add a hyperlink or a “Watch Video” button in your Doc that opens the Clip in a new tab.
  2. Use a thumbnail image as a clickable link — upload a still image or screenshot from your Clip, then hyperlink it to the Zoom Clip URL. This gives readers a visual cue to click and view the video.
  3. Host the Clip elsewhere — if your Clip doesn’t need authentication, you can download it and re‑upload it to YouTube or a file storage service (like Google Drive or OneDrive) that supports public embed links. Then embed that version in your Zoom Doc.
  4. Embed in an internal (non‑published) Doc — if your audience is internal and authenticated, the embedded Clip will play fine within the editable or shared-within-org version of the Doc.
  5. Use an external webpage — if embedding is critical, create a simple webpage or knowledge base entry where Zoom Clips can be embedded, then link that page from your published Zoom Doc.

Next steps:

  • Test each option to see which fits your workflow best (internal vs. public).
  • Submit or upvote a feature request for “Zoom Clips embed support in published Zoom Docs” on the Zoom Community or through your Zoom admin portal.
  • If you’re part of an enterprise account, your Zoom admin can also raise this through your Customer Success Manager to help prioritize it.

Hopefully one of these approaches helps until full embed support rolls out!
