Understand an exact origin
An origin is the combination of protocol, hostname, and port. A path is not part of it. `https://example.com`, `https://www.example.com`, and `http://localhost:5173` are three different origins.
- Include https:// or http://
- Use the exact hostname
- Include non-default development ports
- Do not paste a full page path
Approve every real environment separately
Add the local, preview, staging, and production origins that genuinely need to render the player. Avoid broad entries added only for convenience, and remove temporary origins after acceptance.
Publish only after playback is ready
- 1 Confirm hosted playback readiness
- 2 Review the player and poster
- 3 Add the destination origins
- 4 Publish and copy the current installation code
- 5 Test the live destination
Unpublish when the player must stop resolving
Unpublishing is the direct way to remove the public player while keeping the underlying video record available in the workspace. Removing one origin is more precise when only one website should stop hosting it.
