Embed a broadcast

For: Page editors.

Play a live or recorded X broadcast on your page, in X’s player. Readers watch it next to your event plan. They do not have to leave the page.

Live example

This broadcast plays below, in X’s player. On an event page, put it below the plan and time zone. Add event links and written notes too, for readers when the stream is not on.

We don't have a way to export this macro.

Before you start

  • You can edit this page.

  • You have an X broadcast URL beginning with https://x.com/i/broadcasts/.

  • You do not need an X API key.

X must still provide the stream or recording. For a normal X post with video, use Embedded Video. The app does not host or record streams.

  1. Open the page’s insert menu. Choose Embedded Broadcast.

  3. Choose your settings and check the preview.
