You can embed Mandala Audio-Video and Visuals resources in your own website with iFrames. An iFrame lets you add HTML content within another HTML page. This tutorial will walk you through the four steps necessary to embed Mandala AV assets in your Collab site:

1. Find and copy your video’s iFrame code

  1. Log in to https://audio-video.shanti.virginia.edu/
  2. Open the Main Menu again
  3. Click My Content, then My Collections
  4. Choose the collection which contains the video you want to embed
  5. Open the video you want to embed
  6. Click the Share icon in the bottom right corner of the video display
  7. Copy the code in the bottom box, labeled </>

2. Create an HTML page in UVACollab

  1. Open the course where you want to embed the video at https://collab.its.virginia.edu
  2. Select Resources from the Tools Menu on the left side of the page
  3. Next to the folder for your course, click Actions 
  4. Select Create HTML Page

3. Paste the iFrame you copied from Mandala onto the HTML page

  1. Select the Source button at the top left corner of the editor
  2. Paste your iFrame code
  3. Click Continue

After entering text or other content into the editor in UVACollab, we recommend using the Accessibility Checker to confirm that the content is fully accessible to all site participants. See How do I check my content for accessibility? for more information on the Accessibility Checker and instructions for checking content.


4. Save your new page and notify your students that it exists

  1. Enter a File Name for the HTML page in the box provided.
  2. If you want, you can send an automatic email notification to site participants with a link to the page
  3. Click Finish

If you need to update this page or add more content, return to your course Resources page. Next to the page you created, click Actions > Edit Content.
