Click on the "Videos" option.
Search for the video you wish to add or select one from the offered options.
Drag and drop the selected video onto the desired slide.

By default, the video will fit the entire slide, but you can resize and reposition it according to your needs.

Step 4: Adjust Video Settings

With your video now on your slide, you can adjust various settings such as the video volume, whether or not you want your video to autoplay, and if it should loop continuously. To access these settings, click on the video in your presentation, and the settings should appear at the top of the page.

Step 5: Preview Your Video

After setting your video preferences, make sure to preview your video so that you can ensure it plays exactly how you want it to. To preview your video, simply click on the “Present” button at the top-right corner of the screen.
