About this task

You can reference the video topics in documents, such as Using, Overview and Specification, Deploying, and Administering.

Procedure

  1. Open the publication, such as Using <product> and check out the topic where you want to reference the video topic.
  2. At the end of the topic, place the cursor between body and root elements, press Enter and add the related-links element.

    For example, between the end of taskbody and task elements.





  3. Inside related-links, press Enter and do the following:
    1. Select link (web link).
    2. In the URL field of the Web Link dialog box, type <link to the video topic on doc center>.

      Example, https://documentation.avaya.com/bundle/ExperiencePlatformApplicationCenterAdministrationVideos/page/Assigning_agents_for_Proactive_Outreach.html

    3. Click OK.

      The Avaya Documentation Center output displays the complete URL as the link text.

  4. To change the link text, place your cursor in the link element, press Enter and click linktext, and enter the video title.
    Add the video title in the link text element
  5. In the Attribute window of the link element, set the following attributes:

    • href: <link to the video topic on doc center>, if not already provided in the Web Link dialog box.

    • scope: external

    • type: video

      Type video if you do not see the option in the type field.

    In the Text view of the editor, you will see <link href="https://documentation.avaya.com/bundle/page/<video topic.html>" format="html" scope="external" type="video">Video title</>





  6. Check in the topic.
    Note:

    You can link more than one video topic in a topic. Add a new link element for each video topic that you want to link.

  7. Repeat Step 2 through 5 for all topics where you want to reference video topics.
  8. Publish the AvayaDocPortal output to upload the content on Avaya Documentation Center.
  9. Verify that the links to video topics appear and are active.
