### **Video Insights**

Video insights refer to the data and metrics related to how videos are being watched.

These insights include:

* **Total Views**: How many times the video has been played.
* **Unique Views**: The number of individual users who have watched the video.
* **Average Watch Time**: The average duration viewers spend watching the video.
* **Total Time Watched**: Cumulative time spent by all viewers watching the video.

These insights help track the performance of a video in terms of audience reach and engagement.

### **Widget Types Supporting Video Insights**

The following widget types support video insights:

* **Multimedia Widget**
* **Rich Text Box with Media**
* **Slider Widget**
* **Wraparound Text Media Widget**

For example, a **slider widget** may contain multiple videos, each having its own set of video insights. These insights are available via a "Video Insights" link, accessible by clicking on the three-dot icon within the widget.

When users click on the "Video Insights" link, they can view a **summary dialog box** showing a list of all uploaded videos along with detailed statistics. The table format includes:

* **Video Name**
* **Video Duration**
* **Total Time Watched**
* **Average Time Per View**
* **Unique Viewers**
* **Total Views**

For example, a video with a duration of 20 minutes might show insights such as:

* **Total Views**: 5
* **Average Time Per View**: 12 minutes
* **Unique Viewers**: 3

If a user watches the video multiple times, the **Total Views** count increases accordingly.

***

### **Post Video Insights**

Video insights are also available for videos uploaded within posts. If a post contains multiple videos, each one has its insights. Post creators can view whether their videos have reached the target audience and whether they’ve been watched.
