Manual imports

Importing is the process of collecting external media and/or data and bringing it in to a Medallia Video channel. The most commonly imported media is cloud storage hosted video files. The most commonly imported data is first collected elsewhere and exported, such as from an externally hosted survey software. The Imports screen allows you to manually import media and/or data using pre-configured templates.
