Overview

This document lists the steps to upload a video on the KPOINT portal. The new and improved author experience on kPoint provides the following benefits:

• Upload multiple videos at a time and check the progress
• While you wait for the videos to be uploaded you can add information and set the publish visibility of the videos. This enables a quick upload without having to go to the ‘Manage videos’ page later.
