I have a flash video that I've created that I like to add to Quickbase's dashboard. Does QB have an option to embed videos or flash files? If not how can I add it to the dashboard?

The infamous Dan Diebolt has a way. https://quickbase-community.intuit.com/questions/978943-embed-video-in-a-record  I suggest you contract with Dan to do it for you.

Since it's just a flash file, I uploaded the file as a file attachment and used that link and added it to the dashboard as a webpage.

Can you post what the format of the link looks like?

Here is one way to set it up:
  • add a code page
  • add the below code inserting the link to your video
<!DOCTYPE html> 
<html> 
<body> 

<video width="100%" controls>
  <source src="https://xxxx.quickbase.com/.mp4"; type="video/mp4">
  Your browser does not support HTML5 video.
</video>
</body> 
</html>
  • add a text widget to your dashboard.
  • add an image to the text widget using the rich text options
  • insert a hyperlink to the image and then select your code page as the target
