CREATING A NEW QUICK LINK:

NOTE: Each link can either be copied/pasted into your own email, or emailed through cast it. Recipients can click on the link and immediately watch the selected videos.

"Quick Links" links are live, meaning they can be updated/changed on CIS at any time, even after being sent or viewed, and the information will be updated on the link automatically. 



Steps:

1. Login to your Cast It Systems profile
   
   
2. Click into the project whose videos you want to send out
   
   
3. Expand the role to see whose videos you want to send out by clicking on the down arrow to the right of the role name

Once playing, select the "Add Clip to Quick Link" button. This will add the playing video to your link. Repeat this process for all clips that you'd like to add to your link

12. If you have multiple clips, and you'd like to re-organize them, you can select the clip, and elect to move it up or down in the order. If you re-organize clips in an active link, the link will automatically update to the order you set.
