I am trying to embed 360 degree video from youtube into storyline 360 but was not able to get final output, I have tried all the ways in inserting video as a link, as a web object as a variable, Is there any one who tried this if yes, please share your ideas.
Hm, I have done this before in SL2, see here a quick example. This should work in SL360 as well. Now that the Embed method works again, you should be able to either use a video's embed code or the video's URL to use in a web object.
You need to upload your content to some server (e.g. TempShare) and test it from there. The link I sent you works because the content is hosted on my server.
As you can see on the second slide of my example, I used "https://www.youtube.com/embed/UaIKu8hGQqY" and it works for me. In the meantime, I also tested this in Review and it works there as well, see here.
I have tried inserting a 360 video inside story line 360 it worked on following option:
1. As a link by clicking on an image
2. As a Camtasia Studio
3. As a web object
But i am trying to include the same 360 degree video to play inside articulate 360, Is there any way you can help me with this issue and it would be great to discuss with you further on this issue.
I'm not sure what you mean by "play inside articulate 360". You have already made it work in Storyline 360, are you trying to do the same in Rise? If you are still struggling to use an embed code in SL360, you can always share you .story file here and someone will have a look.
I am sorry if i am not clear in my previous request. My concern is when we publish a scene there will be a pop up window with options like
articulate 360
web
LMS .... etc, please find the attachment.
So when i select a web option to publish everything is going fine and smooth but when i select articulate 360 option to publish the content is not playing /not displaying the final result.
When you use the Articulate 360 publishing option, the content is then available in Articulate Review. Here is my test file published with the 'Articulate 360' option and uploaded to Review.
What are options for publishing this kind of video if you work for a company that doesn't allow any kind of web published content or utility? In short, How do we do this with zero web tools?
I was thinking I could do it with just a 360 camera, and editing software. Am I headed in the right direction?
Hi there, Vance. Storyline 360 currently doesn't support videos in a 360º format. Our only suggested workaround is to host the video externally; though it sounds like this isn't an option for you.
We are tracking this request, and I'll tag this discussion to be updated with any changes!
360º video support is a popular request and one we've got our eyes on! Our team is actively exploring examples so we can best understand how this feature would be used.
We'd love to hear more about how this could help you. Feel free to add your details through a Feature Request!
As soon as we finalize the details around this concept, we'll share the news on our What's New, What's Next page!
At this time, our team is continuing to track requests for embedding 360-degree videos. We are currently developing 360-degree images and hope to have more updates to share on that soon! In the meantime, we have a great resource that shares our feature roadmap and what we are working on next here:
I have exciting news to share! We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 54, we’ve included important fixes and new features.
One of the features we’ve included is:
Create immersive learning experiences with 360° images. Add interactive elements, such as hotspots and markers to engage learners as they explore.
360° images are currently in public beta for Storyline 360, which means you can use them for production as we continue to enhance them.
To take advantage of this feature, launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You'll find our step-by-step instructions here.

I tried using the embed code and URL as well, but did not get the final output. Have you tried in SL360.
I haven't tried in SL360, but I haven't heard about any issues with YouTube videos. Can you share the video url so that I can give it a try?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIKu8hGQqY
so when you tried in SL2 it worked perfectly did you get a chance in doing it in SL 360
See here a quick test with your video, running off my server. Does this work in your browser?
yes, its working in my browser (chrome), Can you give a brief idea of steps how did you get it done.
See attached the .story file. Are you testing this locally (on your harddrive)? If yes, then the video is likely blocked.
yes i am not able to open on my system its showing blocked content, So how did it work in the browser when you have sent me the link

It just occurred to me, since you use SL360, you can also publish the content for Articulate360, upload it and view it in Review.
I tried doing that using the below embed code but did not work out,
