Inserting GIFs into content
Overview
Add some fun to your content by including a GIF. If enabled, you can insert GIFS into your content using the GIPHY tool found on the WYSIWYG editor's toolbar. This tool allows you to search and select a GIF from GIPHY, an online repository dedicated to hosting GIFs. When browsing GIFs using this tool, you will only see GIFs that have a PG rating. For more information about the PG rating, see Content Rating.
Inserted GIFs are hosted by GIPHY and do not use up any storage space in your digital workplace. User's who select an inserted GIF will be redirected to the GIFs page on GIPHY.
