Collaborators can quickly add their input source to an existing live video object or switch between member’s input sources during a collaborative session.
This is especially useful for live demos or presentations to keep participants focused. Repurposing existing video stream objects eliminates the need to navigate to a different object or add a new object.
To repurpose a live video object in your workspace:
-
Locate an existing live video object.
-
If a collaborator is not sharing their video, the object displays like the image above, and anyone in the workspace can share their input source. Select (Play) on the object, and a dialogue box appears. Select your input type, set audio, and select Add live content.

If a collaborator is finished sharing their video stream and wants another member to share their stream in the same object, they can detach their input source. Select (More Options) on the live feed player. Then select Detach input source.
-
This allows for another collaborator to use the same object to share their screen. See step 2 to share screen input.
