How to Add and Set Up the Vimeo Livestream Widget on Your Form

With Jotform, you can easily bring your live events straight to your audience — right inside your form. The Vimeo Livestream widget lets you embed livestreams, webinars, virtual conferences, and recorded videos in just a few clicks, giving people an effortless way to watch without leaving the page.

This makes your forms more engaging and interactive, whether you’re hosting an online event, gathering registrations, or sharing important broadcasts. It’s a simple way to keep viewers focused, make your content more accessible, and create a smoother experience for anyone who needs to tune in.

Here are a few ways to use it:

• Embed live or recorded Vimeo Livestream videos directly in your form.
• Promote upcoming broadcasts, webinars, or virtual events.
• Let viewers watch your stream while submitting registrations, feedback, or sign-ups.
• Enhance training, onboarding, or educational forms with real-time video content.
• Add event previews or highlight reels to boost interest and engagement.
• Create a more interactive experience for participants during conferences or workshops.
• Keep viewers on one page instead of sending them to an external streaming link.
