   Browsing the Cloudflare Stream Library

1) Do I need a Cloudflare account to use this plugin?

Yes. Sign up for a free or paid Cloudflare plan that maps to your site’s domain address. Once your account is activated, you can obtain the API key to enable the plugin.

2) Is there a cost to use this plugin?

Stream charges for storage and views based on minutes. Storage costs $5 per thousand minutes worth of video content. As videos get watched, incremental costs of $1 per thousand minutes viewed apply. These costs are in addition to any other Cloudflare free or paid subscription plan you signed up.

3) My site is already connected to Cloudflare, can I use this?

Yes. If you are already a Stream user you only need to activate the plugin using the API key. If you haven’t enabled Stream yet, login to your Cloudflare account and enable the feature to receive an API activation key for the plugin.

4) Can I use this plugin to deliver live streams?

No. Stream only supports on-demand video streaming.

5) How is this different from using an embedded YouTube player link?

Stream lets you own and control the video viewing experience and is ideal for videos that require a paid subscription.
