Trigger not showing after Youtube Video

Hi Team, 

Long time follower, first time poster. 

So I have started pulling out my limited hair over a trigger not appearing. I have embedded a Youtube video into my storyline and set a trigger to change from hidden to visible once the video completes. 

However, this does not happen. I have tried playing with the code and adding an end time (see below) but still nothing. 

Ultimately I changed the button trigger to appear after a certain time, but am not happy with this. 

Any suggestions at all?

" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen=""></iframe>

    Hi Matt! I came here to find a solution to a similar problem. Did you ever figure this one out? Ideally I would like my YouTube video to autoplay, but it will not (I have tried as embed and as a web object). In both cases it is as though the media is completely disconnected from the timeline and it will not respond to any of the various triggers that I have tried. The only way the video will play is if the user clicks the play icon on the YouTube screen itself- but SL is not recognizing this action so I can't base a trigger off of it. Let me know if you found a work around. Thanks!! Katie

      Hey Katharine! Although we don't provide support for javascript coding, we do have this article that shares how to add YouTube videos to Storyline 360. There's even a snippet on autoplay parameters. I hope that helps!

    Hi Matt/Katharine,

    This can be achieved by integrating the YouTube API and call a javacriopt function to trigger if the video is completed or not. you can also perform Storyline action once the video is completed.

      Raj S- Not yet but I will read the article Sarah provided. If you have any other helpful tips I would love them. I have not tried my hand at javascript yet.
