You may run into an error when trying to embed a BombBomb video or YouTube short into an email in LeadSimple. This is usually caused by using the wrong url for the video.
โ€‹

Bombbomb:
LeadSimple needs the long url to embed your video, not the short url you get by clicking "Link & Share" in BombBomb. Instead, get your link by clicking "Share Your Video" or "Copy," or by copy/pasting the short url into your browser, then copying the long link that then appears.

YouTube Short:

You'll need to change the link slightly in order for LeadSimple to recognize a link to a YouTube short.
