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!
