Guided walkthrough: Feature videos on your intranet home page

The basis for Stream (built on SharePoint) is having video files stored in SharePoint, Microsoft Teams, & Yammer with the ability to create destinations that feature video content in your Viva Connections and SharePoint-based intranet. For more background information, see Overview of featuring videos with web parts, pages, sites, & portals.

In this article, we show you elements of an example intranet home page inside of Microsoft Teams using Viva Connections to inspire you, and help you learn how to weave video throughout your own intranet.

Example intranet home page

Organization intranet home page being shown via Viva Connections as a tab in Teams. Videos are shown on the page for reccomended viewing, trending videos, and video player.

Video elements on this intranet home page:

General setup

This article assumes you've already setup your intelligent intranet with SharePoint and Viva Connections. After you've done that, you can use the below examples to weave video into your intranet home page.

Videos as curated hero elements

At the top of our intranet page, we are using the Hero web part to curate a set of links to important content for our employees. With the Hero web part you can link to news articles, videos, documents, or any kind of link you want. Since in Stream (built on SharePoint) videos are an equal peer with other content types, you can mix and match videos with other content in your organization.

In the side bar of our internet page, we're using the Highlighted content web part configured to show the top two trending videos across our entire organization. Users can see what's been viewed most in the last few weeks and select the "See all" link to get to more trending videos.

Embedded video

In the middle of the page, we've embedded a video so our employees can watch the video directly inline in the page. To embed the video, we're using the File and Media web part.
