Insert a video from or another site (Office 365)

In PowerPoint for the web, you can insert an online video from YouTube or Vimeo on a slide. (If you have an Office 365 business or education subscription, you can also insert an online video from Microsoft Stream.)

The video plays directly from the website, and it has the site's controls for playing, pausing, volume, and so on. The PowerPoint playback features (Fade, Bookmark, Trim, and so on) don't apply to online videos.

Because the video is stored on a web site, rather than in your presentation, you must be connected to the internet in order for the video to play successfully.
