Blackboard is not a video hosting platform, and it is not recommended that you upload video files directly to Blackboard. An alternative solution is to upload the video to YouTube or Microsoft Stream and post the video link in your assignment submission. In order to allow YouTube to let you post a video that exceeds 15 minutes, you will need to refer to YouTube Help. If you must upload a video to Blackboard instead of sharing a link, the video must be under 2 GB. If the video you are attempting to upload to Blackboard exceeds the size limit for videos or if your connection speed cannot handle a large file upload, it will give you an error message when you attempt to upload the video or simply fail to progress.
