 * We have a promotional video on youtube that we’d like to offer to our affiliates
   to use on their sites. If possible, it’d be great to have “video” as an option
   for a creative. I realize no code would be needed from Affiliates Manager in 
   the case of a video, but if you had a place where we could just paste in the 
   Youtube embed code that could work great.

 * [@invest0r7](https://wordpress.org/support/users/invest0r7/), All YouTube videos
   are loaded directly from YouTube (even if you embed it with their iframe embed
   code). So you can’t really track a file which is actually hosted on the YouTube
   server. What you can do is embed the video in a page and use the URL of the page
   as the target URL in your creative.

 * Right actually I wasn’t expecting a video to be tracked in any way. The embed
   code showed to the affiliate would be whatever youtube embed code we insert in
   WordPress Admin for a video creative. I’d simply like a way to be able to offer
   affiliates a video in the Creatives section to supplement their actual affiliate
   links. Hopefully I’m being clear enough. No tracking with video whatsoever, just
   giving them another tool in video form to add to their reviews/text/affiliate
   links.
