Request a video
Send a request link and anyone can record a video for you in their browser, no account needed. Their video lands in your library.
A request link lets anyone record a video for you: a customer showing a problem, a candidate's intro or a teammate's walkthrough. They record in the browser with no account, and each video lands in your library.
Create a request
- Select Requests in the sidebar.
- Select Create request.
- Give it a Title, such as "Record a 60-second intro". The person recording sees it as the heading.
- Optional: add Instructions. They're shown before and during recording.
- Set the options:
- Maximum length: 1, 3, 5 or 10 minutes. Recording stops at the limit.
- Save videos to: your library or one of your folders.
- Link expires: never, or in 1, 7 or 30 days.
- Responses: no limit, or close the link after 1, 5, 10 or 25 videos.
- Allow screen recording: on computers, people can record their screen instead of their camera. Phones always record with the camera.
- Select Create request, then copy the Request link and send it.
You get an email and a notification each time someone records a video.
What the person recording sees
They see your name, your workspace, the title and your instructions. They enter Your name, and optionally their email and a note for you, then select Record video. After a review step, they send it with Send video. They can watch their video again from the link shown afterwards, or select Record another.
Manage requests
On the Requests page, each request shows how many videos it has. Select a request to see its videos. From the More actions menu you can Copy link, Preview, Edit request, Close request, Reopen request or Delete request.
- A closed or expired link shows a page saying it no longer takes videos.
- Deleting a request keeps its videos in your library.
