Videos can help you create more engaging and interactive surveys by providing respondents with visual context before they answer questions. Whether you're collecting feedback on marketing campaigns, testing creative assets, conducting research, or delivering training content, embedding videos directly into your survey can improve response quality and engagement.
BlockSurvey supports embedding videos from platforms such as YouTube, YouTube Shorts, Vimeo, and other video hosting services. This allows respondents to watch videos without leaving the survey, creating a seamless experience and helping you capture feedback immediately after viewing the content.
Here's how you can embed the video in the survey/form
In the embed section, under integrations you can pick the iframe code.
Copy that code, in the welcome screen, question or thank you screen, whereever you want to embed the video paste this code.
Change the src value to the video link.
This allows you to customize the video as well. For example, in order to add the YouTube shorts, you can change the style properties to Width- 315px, Height- 560px, Max Width- 100%. You can use this code as well and just replace the video link placeholder with the actual video link-
<iframe loading="lazy"style="width: 100%; height: 60vh; max-height: 100%; top: 0; left: 0; border: none; padding: 0;margin: 0;"src="[video link]" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"allow="fullscreen"></iframe>
Once you have added the code, select the entire code and click on HTML (refer the screenshot above).
