Hi Tanvi,

You can allow video items on ContentArea by the below code and then write logic on the view to render it.

[AllowedTypes(AllowedTypes = new [] { typeof(VideoData) })]
public virtual ContentArea RelatedContentArea { get; set; }

But I suggest you create a new block type called VideoBlock and then create its own controller/view and then it will work as a normal block.

We can add an Iframe in the view and in its src property we can add the embedded url available from the video
