Overview

Shareable assets let you create public links for your video and audio files or specific segments. These links can be shared externally or embedded in your applications without requiring authentication. Shareable asset page

​
Use Cases

  • Sharing clips — Generate a link to a specific video segment to share with collaborators or stakeholders.
  • Embedding in apps — Embed video players directly into your web applications using iframes.
  • Public previews — Create publicly accessible previews of processed media for review or distribution.

​
Creating Shareable Assets

You can create shareable assets in two ways:
  1. Via the API — Use the create share endpoint to programmatically generate shareable links for files or segments.
  2. Via the web app — Use the file manager in the Cloudglue dashboard to create and manage shareable links.

​
Embedding

Shareable asset URLs support a minimal layout mode for clean iframe embedding: 
https://app.cloudglue.dev/share/{asset_id}?layout=minimal
Use the layout=minimal query parameter to hide navigation chrome and show only the media player. Minimal layout view

​
Start Time

You can link directly to a specific timestamp using the s query parameter (in seconds): 
https://app.cloudglue.dev/share/{asset_id}?s=120
This starts playback at 2 minutes into the media.
