Chorus Playlists allow you to seamlessly create and organize playlists of top moments with folders and subfolders and find and review calls on-demand. Playlists are a powerful tool for reps, managers, and enablement leaders.
Playlists provide an easy way to curate content for team training within your organization and save a collection of snippets in one place, either with the purpose of sharing with a team or for one’s own knowledge.

Overview of Playlists
There are three different kinds of Chorus playlists:
- Playlist: A curation of calls or call snippets that has been manually created. These can be public or private. This includes personal playlists. Use playlists for Film Reviews, Onboarding, 1:1s, and more.
- Smart Playlist: A curation of call snippets that has been AI-generated. End users select the criteria they wish to include and calls that fit the criteria automatically get added. These can be public or private.
- Hashtag Playlist: A curation of call snippets that has been curated through the use of #hashtags. Every time a #hashtag is used, snippets get added to a public playlist.
To pin or bookmark playlists you’d like to reference or save for review later, add them to one of your personal playlists:
- #MyPinnedMoments: Pin important moments with 1-click using #MyPinnedMoments during and after a call.
- My Bookmarks: Bookmark moments that you need to reference after a call or reference frequently.

Adding Moments to Playlists
You can add an entire call to a playlist or use the clipping functionality to add a specific moment to the playlist.

Please note: If you need help finding a specific recording, check out this help article - In the recording, click the arrow next to Share on the bottom-right of the video player

- Using the video cropping tools, you can pair down the recording to a snippet to share a moment from the call or slide the cropping tools all the way out to the sides to keep the whole recording.

- Under Select Playlist, choose the Playlist
- Under Description, add notes about the recording to describe what to look at and why it’s in the playlist
- Click Save & Add
Following Playlists
Follow playlists (subscribe) and sign up for a daily morning digest email that will surface any new calls or moments that have been added to your playlist. Sign up for multiple playlists–don’t worry, you’ll only get one email a day.
This is great for busy managers that want a list of calls they should listen to on the way to work!

- Search for keywords or through the list for the respective playlist
- Click on the playlist
- In the playlist, click Follow at the top right

Sharing Playlist Access
Share playlists to give your team access to all the calls in a given playlist. Sharing is great for new hire onboarding and ongoing training initiatives.
Things to note when sharing:
- By default, new playlists are private and not publicly accessible
- Playlists can be shared individually, with specified teams, or made public (accessible to ALL current and future users in the platform)
- For Admins: Admins can control which users are allowed to share playlists using the Roles & Permissions section of Settings
Follow these steps to share a playlist:
- In Chorus, click Playlists on the left-hand side
- Search using keywords or through the list for the respective playlist
- In the playlist, click Share at the top right
- Type and select the User(s) or Team(s) to share
- Click Share
Please note: To make the playlist public, click the toggle to the right of Make Publicly Available.
Managing Playlists
To manage playlists, you can edit, move, and delete playlists.
For Playlist owners:
- Playlist owners can update the playlist name and owner
- Playlist owners can move the playlist into other folders
- Playlists can be deleted by the owner–If a playlist is deleted that contains subfolders, those subfolders will also be deleted
Follow these steps to manage playlists:
- In Chorus, click Playlists on the left-hand side
- Search using keywords or through the list for the respective playlist
- Click on three dots next to the playlist, and choose to Edit Playlist, Move To another playlist folder, or Delete
Organizing Playlists & Playlist Permissions
The playlists page is default organized by most recent activity. This means that any playlist that has been modified or created most recently will be at the top of the page.
However, you can sort by Updated Date, Playlist Owner, and Number of Snippets.
Playlist Folders
For teams with multiple functional groups (ex. NA Enterprise AEs, EMEA Corporate AEs, etc), we offer Playlist Folders and Sub-Folders to help organize your Playlist content by function, market segment, and type of conversation.
Playlist Permissions:
- If a user has access to a playlist, they can add snippets to the playlist.
- For example: You provide team members access to a playlist, and they can now add snippets.
- Subfolders can have wider sharing permissions than their parent folder.
- For example: A subfolder is added to a playlist that is only shared with 3 people. The subfolder can be made public, while the top-level folder (playlist) remains visible only to the 3 people it was originally shared with. Everyone will be able to see the contents of the sub-folder but not the top-level folder.
- When creating a subfolder, it will be shared with the same users as the top-level folder (playlist) it is nested beneath.
- For example: If a top-level folder is made public, all subfolders created under that playlist will also be public. This is helpful for content you wish to organize but keep available to your entire organization.
- If the subfolder is nested under 1 or more subfolders, it will be shared with the same users as the folder it is nested under.
- For example: If a top-level folder is only shared with the sales team and a subfolder is created, by default it will also be shared with the sales team.
- Playlists owners can share subfolders with additional teams but still limit access to the top-level folder.
- For example: The playlist owner can share a subfolder with the Marketing team. The marketing team would have access to the subfolder but not the original top-level folder. However, the team that has access to the top-level folder can also view sub-folder playlists.
Please note: If playlist privacy is a concern, please reach out to your CSM to ensure your specific requirements are met.
Creating subfolders and nested folders:
- In Chorus, click Playlists on the left-hand side
- Create the top-level Playlist folder first (ex. Enterprise Team).
- In the Playlist folder, click +Create Subfolder to create your first nested folder.
- Type in the subfolder name and click Save. (Example use case: North America AEs, EMEA AEs, Global CSM).
Managing subfolders and nested folders:
- In Chorus, click Playlists on the left-hand side
- Search using keywords or through the list for the respective playlist
- To move a folder, click on the three dots and select Move To
- In the pop-up window, choose the new playlist to nest the playlist under
