How to get an embedded YouTube video to be viewed from a public link?

[Jesica Avendaño]

I have tried to add the video with the Youtube option and with the Widget Connector option, but every time I publish the article and enter the public link, it appears: You must have access to see the Widget Connector or You must have access to see YouTube.

Hi @Jesica Avendaño and welcome!

Is the youtube video private? If yes, trying switch the video to public.

Hi @Alex Koxaras -Relational- 

Nope. It's a public video

Do you use the Widget Connector or the "youtube" macro?
I have no problem using the link you gave me. I mean it works fine with the widget connector.

I mean, I can use the link on the widget connector and also on the youtube macro. The problem is that no matter which of the two methods I use, when people access the public link to see my page, instead of the video, they get notice to access Confluence

If it's a public confluence page, can you share it here please?

@Jesica Avendaño I've created a public page and inserted the widget connector with your youtube link and works fine. I gave the anonymous viewing permission only.

• Does this happen only in that space, or it occurs in other spaces as well.
• Does this occur with only this youtube link, or with others as well?

@Alex Koxaras -Relational- Sure! The public page link is:

And for your questions, I tried on other pages and with other videos to dismiss, but the same thing happens.

But what you mentioned made me wonder... Should I give anonymous permission to the video on the pages? Is that possible?
