How to Set Custom Due Dates for Video Viewers

Custom due dates allow you to assign different deadlines to individual viewers or groups watching the same video. This is useful for managing classroom assignments, training, or other activities where viewers need different completion deadlines.

Custom due dates are available to members and admins on Starter and Pro plans.

Set a Custom Due Date

You can assign custom due dates in two ways:

When Sharing a Video

1. Open your video and click Share.
2. Add the individuals or groups you want to share the video with.
3. In the Custom Due Date section, select your desired date and time.
4. Send your invitations to apply the due date.

If your video already has a default due date, that date will be prefilled and can be adjusted.

From the Viewers Tab

1. Open your video and navigate to the Viewers tab.
2. Click the due date icon next to the viewer's name.
3. Select the desired due date.

You can also sort the Due Date column to easily review upcoming deadlines.

Change or Remove a Custom Due Date

1. Navigate to your video's Viewers tab.
2. Click the due date icon next to the viewer's name.
3. Select a new date or click Clear to remove the custom due date.

Note: Changing the video's default due date will not update custom due dates you've already assigned.
