Use the youtube web part

When you add a modern page to a site, you add and customize web parts, which are the building blocks of your page

This article focuses on the YouTube web part, which allows you to embed YouTube videos right on your page.

Notes: 

• Some functionality is introduced gradually to organizations that have opted in to the Targeted Release program. This means that you may not yet see this feature or it may look different than what is described in the help articles.

• If you don't see this web part in the web part toolbox, your administrator may have disabled it.

• The YouTube web part is not available in SharePoint Server 2019. Additionally, it is not supported in U.S. Government GCC High and DoD or Office 365 operated by 21Vianet.
