Ability to Embed Videos From Connections Files Appliacation in TinyMCE Editor

Dear Team,

The Problem: Currently, embedding a video from the HCL Connections Files application into a Blog, Wiki, or Activity requires users to manually generate an "embed code" and insert it via the TinyMCE "Media" plugin. This multi-step process is a major roadblock for users and discourages rich media sharing as well as creating Wiki and Blog articles in Connections.

Proposed Solution: Please add a native integration/menu entry within the TinyMCE 'Insert' menu.

Expected Behavior: Users should be able to click an "Insert Video from Files" button, select the desired video directly from the Connections Files application, and have it embedded automatically—without ever needing to see or copy an embed code.

Thank you for your consideration.
