You can upload images directly in the chat with Nettify AI, but **videos, large image galleries and other large files** need to live in a cloud service first. The reason is simple: these files are too large to upload directly. The solution is to use **Google Drive** (or Dropbox / OneDrive). Upload the file there, share it with a public link, and give the link to Nettify AI. Nettify AI will embed it on your website — as a video player, an image gallery or a download button. > [!NOTE] > > **In short:** Upload the file to Google Drive → share with a public link → paste the link into Nettify AI → describe where and how you want it on the website. *** ## Add your own video Have a video you want to show on your website — a presentation, a customer testimonial or an "about us" film? Here's how: **1. Upload the video to Google Drive** Go to [Google Drive](https://drive.google.com) and upload your video file. Most video formats work (MP4, MOV, AVI). **2. Make the link public** Right-click the video and select **Share**. Under **General access**, change from "Restricted" to **"Anyone with the link"**. Leave the role set to **Viewer**. Click **Copy link**. **3. Paste the link into Nettify AI** Open the chat with Nettify AI and paste the link. Describe where you want the video and how it should look. **4. Review and publish** Check that the video displays and plays in the preview. Then click **Publish**. > [!WARNING] > > The link **must** be set to public. If it isn't, visitors will be asked to request access — and they won't be able to watch the video. ### Ready-made prompts for video > [!TIP] > > **Copy this prompt and paste it into Nettify AI:** ``` Add a video on the front page in its own section. Here is the link to the video from Google Drive: [paste your public link here] The section should have: - Heading: "See how we work" - The video centered, in 16:9 format - Below the video: a short text and a "Contact us" button - Design: clean background, plenty of space around the video ``` ``` Add a background video in the hero section on the front page. Here is the link from Google Drive: [paste your public link here] The video should: - Play automatically without sound - Loop continuously - Have a dark overlay with white text on top ``` > [!TIP] > > **Already have the video on YouTube or Vimeo?** Then you don't need Google Drive. Paste the YouTube or Vimeo link directly into Nettify AI and it will embed a video player automatically. See also [HTML widget](https://docs.nettify.no/en/ai/html-widget.md) for more control over the embed. *** ## Add images ### A few images? Upload directly in Nettify AI The easiest way to add images is to upload them directly in the chat with Nettify AI. You can upload **4 images at a time**. Describe where you want them, and Nettify AI will place them on your website for you. > [!NOTE] > > **In short:** Drag images into the chat with Nettify AI (max 4 at a time) → describe where they should go → done! ### Lots of images? Use Google Drive If you want to add **many images** — for example 40, 50 or 100 images for a gallery — uploading 4 at a time in the chat gets tedious. It's more efficient and organized to collect the images in Google Drive and give Nettify AI the links instead. **1. Upload the images to Google Drive** Put all your images in a folder in [Google Drive](https://drive.google.com). **2. Share each image with a public link** Right-click each image and select **Share** → **"Anyone with the link"** → **Copy link**. Repeat for all the images you want to use. **3. Send the links to Nettify AI** Paste all the links into the chat with Nettify AI and describe what you want. Nettify AI will create the gallery for you. > [!NOTE] > > **Tip:** You can share the entire folder as public in Google Drive. Then you can send the folder link to Nettify AI and ask it to fetch the images from there. ### Ready-made prompt for image gallery > [!TIP] > > **Copy this prompt and paste it into Nettify AI:** ``` Create an image gallery on a separate page called "Gallery". Here are the links to the images from Google Drive: - [paste link to image 1] - [paste link to image 2] - [paste link to image 3] - [paste link to image 4] (add as many as you like) Display the images in a grid with 3 columns on desktop and 1 column on mobile. Images should be clickable to view in full screen. Add "Gallery" to the main menu. ``` ``` Add an image gallery in the "About us" section with images from our projects. Here are the links from Google Drive: - [paste link to image 1] - [paste link to image 2] - [paste link to image 3] Display the images in a slider/carousel that visitors can browse through. Design: rounded corners, subtle shadow, responsive. ``` *** ## Making the link public in Google Drive This is the step people forget most often. Here's how: 1. Right-click the file (video, image or document) and select **Share** 2. Under **General access**, change from "Restricted" to **"Anyone with the link"** 3. Leave the role set to **Viewer** 4. Click **Copy link** and then **Done** > [!TIP] > > **Test the link before you send it to Nettify AI.** Paste it into a private/incognito window. If you can see the file without logging in, the link is set up correctly. *** ## Frequently asked questions > [accordion] Which file types can I use? > > You can use all common video formats (MP4, MOV, AVI, WebM) and image formats (JPG, PNG, WebP). For documents, PDF, Word and PowerPoint work. See [Add PDF](https://docs.nettify.no/en/ai/legg-til-pdf.md) for PDFs specifically. > [accordion] Can I upload video directly in Nettify AI? > > No. You can upload images directly in the chat, but videos and other large files need to live in a cloud service like Google Drive. You give Nettify AI the link instead of the file. > [accordion] What's the difference between Google Drive video and YouTube? > > When you use Google Drive, the video stays private in your own account and is displayed directly on the website. With YouTube, the video is public on the YouTube platform and is embedded with a YouTube player. Use Google Drive when you want full control and don't want the video on YouTube. > [accordion] Visitors get a 'request access' message — what's wrong? > > The link isn't public. Go back to Google Drive and set sharing to **"Anyone with the link"**. Test the link in an incognito window afterwards. > [accordion] Can I update the video without changing the website? > > Yes. If you replace the file in Google Drive without changing the link, the content updates automatically. If you upload a completely new file, you get a new link — and then you need to give Nettify AI the new link. > [accordion] Are there file size limits? > > Google Drive has a limit of 5 TB per file. For best performance on your website, we recommend videos under 100 MB compressed to web format (MP4 with H.264). > [!WARNING] > > Large video files can make your website slow to load. Compress the video before uploading, or consider using YouTube/Vimeo for longer videos. This documentation is built and hosted on [Mintlify](https://mintlify.com), a developer documentation platform.
