  • If they are video files, then you can store them as attachments. However, you would probably have to increase the maximum attachment size to cope with vide files.

    If they are stored somewhere else, and you access the videos via a url, then you can create text fields with type=url to store the urls. You could either create these fields on the campaign entity (if you have a known maximum number of videos per campaign), or create a child entity with this fields (if you want an indefinite number of videos per campaign)

  • I would definetly suggest you DO NOT attach a video to the marketing campaign. It should allways be stored outside of the email and iframed into the email or linked as DavidJennaway suggests.

    The reason for this is that when you roll out the campaign, the video will be replicated on the emails in CRM multiple times and will fill up your CRM really quickly.

    You should look at a proper marketing automation system instead. f.ex. ClickDimensions or even something like mailchimp was has some cheap default integration modules out there.
