How to Upload Video from iPhone to Stream in SharePoint
In today’s digital age, sharing videos has become an integral part of communication and collaboration. SharePoint, a popular document management system, allows users to store, organize, and share various types of files, including videos. If you have a video on your iPhone that you want to stream in SharePoint, follow these simple steps to achieve that.
Step 1: Prepare Your Video
Before uploading your video to SharePoint, ensure that it is properly formatted and optimized for streaming. Common video formats include MP4, MOV, and AVI. If your video is in a different format, you can use a video converter app available on the App Store to convert it to a compatible format.
Step 2: Connect Your iPhone to a Computer
To upload the video from your iPhone to SharePoint, you will need to connect your iPhone to a computer. Use a USB cable to connect your iPhone to the computer. Once connected, your computer should recognize your iPhone as an external device.
Step 3: Transfer the Video to Your Computer
Open the file explorer on your computer and navigate to the “This PC” or “My Computer” section. You should see your iPhone listed as an external device. Double-click on your iPhone to open its contents. Find the video file you want to upload and drag it to a folder on your computer.
Step 4: Log in to SharePoint
Open your web browser and go to the SharePoint website where you want to upload the video. Log in to your SharePoint account using your username and password.
Step 5: Create a New Library or Folder
If you haven’t already created a library or folder for your video, do so now. Click on the “New” button in the top-right corner of the SharePoint page and select “Library” or “Folder” from the dropdown menu. Give your library or folder a name and click “Create.”
Step 6: Upload the Video to SharePoint
Navigate to the library or folder you created in the previous step. Click on the “Upload” button and select the video file you transferred to your computer in Step 3. Once the upload is complete, the video will be available in your SharePoint library or folder.
Step 7: Stream the Video
To stream the video in SharePoint, click on the video file to open it. SharePoint should automatically play the video in a media player. If the video doesn’t play, right-click on the file and select “Play” to open it in a new window.
Conclusion
Uploading and streaming videos from your iPhone to SharePoint is a straightforward process. By following these steps, you can easily share your videos with others in your organization or collaborate on video projects. Enjoy the convenience of SharePoint’s video streaming capabilities!
