Using a Lead Form with a Portal Experience
Lead forms can be used to capture viewer information as viewers watch videos and can be used with the following types of experiences:
- Portal
- Live Event Portal
- Landing Page
With Portal, Live Event Portal and some Landing Page experiences, lead forms will be displayed inside the player. Lead forms can be configured to display after a specified number of videos have been viewed or after a predetermined time interval has passed. The following is an example of a lead form displayed inside of a player:
