Implement the syndication parameter on your embeds

Follow
  • Updated

The syndication parameter is a player parameter which allows Dailymotion to properly identify your embedded players on any context, and properly distribute revenues to your channels. This parameter can also be used for targeting purposes.

 

Get your syndication key

The syndication parameter has a unique ID called the syndication key, which is only available for certified users for the moment.

To get the syndication keys assigned to your Dailymotion channels, we invite you to contact your Content Manager or our Support team.

Implementation environments

You have only one syndication key per Dailymotion channel. This key can be used on all environments

 

Implementing the syndication parameter

We make it easy to add the syndication parameter to your embeds.

However you distribute Dailymotion players, you can include the parameter and key to ensure your revenues are being tracked appropriately. The syndication parameter is compatible with the following integration methods: 

For more information on our integration methods and how to use them, please visit our Video Player API documentation. 

 

Code Samples

To get you started, we've included samples for each of the integration methods below.

 

Desktop & Web

iFrame

You can add the syndication parameter in the iframe source using a query string as shown below.
 <iframe frameborder="0" width="480" height="270" src="//www.dailymotion.com/embed/video/x5s90td?syndication=YOUR_SYNDICATION_KEY" allowfullscreen></iframe>
The parameter value will be detected by the player, and passed dynamically into our system.

CPE & Player Template

To add the value for the syndication key, pass it into the query-string attribute within the div container tag for video embeds benefiting from our CPE technology.
 <div class="dailymotion-cpe" video-id="x5s90td" width="400" query-string="syndication=YOUR_SYNDICATION_KEY"></div>
The parameter value will be detected by the player, and passed dynamically into our system.

JavaScript SDK

You can add the syndication parameter in the JavaScript code using the JavaScript SDK:
 <script>
var player = DM.player(document.getElementById("player"),{ 
video: "x7tgad0", 
width: "640", 
height: "360", 
params: { 
autoplay: true, 
mute: true,
syndication: YOUR_SYNDICATION_KEY
} 
}); 
</script>
The parameter value will then be retrieved by the player, and passed dynamically into our system.
