[Embedded Content Integrations](https://support.haystackteam.com/en/platform-integrations?hsLang=en#embedded-content-integrations) # Embedding Videos from YouTube 🎥✨ 📌 **Who can embed?** Content creation permissions in your workspace are granted by your admins, which means that in some instances, not all users have the ability to create and edit content. If you're unsure about your permissions, reach out to your platform admins or our team at [support@haystackteam.com](mailto:Only%20users%20with%20Workspace%20Admin%20permissions%20can%20configure%20the%20Slack%20integration.%20If%20you're%20unsure%20about%20your%20permissions,%20reach%20out%20to%20your%20platform%20admins%20or%20our%20team%20at%20support@haystackteam.com). ### A Few Fun Facts About YouTube Embeds Here are some cool things to keep in mind about embedding videos from YouTube: - **Permissions Are Respected:** Haystack is smart! It respects the original permissions you've set for the video on YouTube. If a teammate can't access the video on YouTube, they won't be able to view the embed in your workspace. - **Updates Happen Automatically:** This is a huge time-saver! If any changes are made to the video on YouTube (like a title change or a new thumbnail), the embed in Haystack updates automatically in near-real time. No need to edit the Haystack embed at all! ### How to Embed a YouTube Video Ready to add a video? Just follow these simple, step-by-step instructions. First, start in YouTube. 1. Navigate to the video that you'd like to embed in your workspace content. 2. Click the **Share** button just beneath the video player.  ![CleanShot 2024-03-09 at 11-56-52@2x-png](https://support.haystackteam.com/hs-fs/hubfs/CleanShot%202024-03-09%20at%2011-56-52@2x-png.png?width=670&height=349&name=CleanShot%202024-03-09%20at%2011-56-52@2x-png.png) 3.
