Kaltura Integration without using the Dashboard

Although it is simpler to embed your Kaltura videos using the dashboard, you can also embed videos directly, making larger scale automation a breeze.

Javascript embed


Step 1. Paste the following code into your HTML.

    <div id="leanin-player">
      <script type="text/javascript" src="http://api.leanin.com/js/kalturaLoader.js"></script>
      <script type="text/javascript">	
        LeanInPlayer.width = 480;
        LeanInPlayer.height = 300;
        LeanInPlayer.apiKey = '{API_KEY}';
        LeanInPlayer.networkMediaID = '{ENTRY_ID}';
        LeanInPlayer.embed("leanin-player");
      </script>
   </div>		
 


Step 2. Replace the placeholders {API_KEY} with your LeanIn API Key and {ENTRY_ID} with the Kaltura video’s entry_id.

Step 3 (Optional). Customize the height and width. You can change the width and the height by modifying the attributes LeanInPlayer.width and LeanInPlayer.height (They can be any HTML values i.e. 50% or 250px).

Step 4 (Optional). You can also customize where the player will appear on your page using this method. To do this, simply replace LeanInPlayer.embed(“leanin-player”) with LeanInPlayer.embed(“mydiv”), where mydiv is any div on your page. Through this you can separate the javascript code and the HTML code.
