Public anonymous external video sharing in Microsoft Stream

Actually, in Microsoft 365 roadmap there was a feature to allow individual videos in Microsoft Stream to be marked for external public access allowing people to view the videos without a login. Stream admins will be able to control if this feature is enabled and who within the organization can make videos publicly available.

Unfrothantly, This feature was planned to be launched in Q4 CY2019 but it's canceled on 22/09/2020.

Note:
1. Users who would like to use Microsoft Stream to upload and share videos should have Microsoft 365 or Steam license.
2. Users don't need a Microsoft Stream license assigned if they only record and download recordings. In this case, recordings aren't stored in Microsoft Stream. Instead, the recordings are stored in Azure Media Services (AMS) with a 21-day limit before a recording is deleted.

Workaround to share Microsoft Stream video for external

  • Download the video from Microsoft Stream
  • Upload it to SharePoint Online/ One drive.
  • Share the uploaded video with anyone who has the link.
