Wistia-hosted video not displaying via video embed
Normally I've been able to embed Wistia-hosted videos into Storyline using iframe embed code such as that shown below. However now it's not displaying in the Articulate slide. Instead, after inserting the embed code I'm getting a web-page error that reads "Navigation to the web page was cancelled." And when I publish the html output shows a blank page.
I've used embed code to Wistia-hosted videos in Storyline in the past with no problem. What gives?
Sample embed code.
<iframe src="//fast.wistia.net/embed/iframe/xv3elj03qr" allowtransparency="true" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" class="wistia_embed" name="wistia_embed" allowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen width="480" height="270"></iframe>

I have been trying the same thing, but no matter what code I add as a web object, it does not work. I'm using the default embed codes from Wistia (have tried all of them, in several combinations, and I've added both http: and https: to the link, but the error message I get in Storyline 2 is that it is not a good link. So am I adding the code incorrectly? if that code is not recognized as a website, do i still enter it in the Http line in the dialog box? Do I put an http: code before the <iframe src... code? please help. :)
Hi Cynthia,
Do you have the link or the code handy and able to share here? That way folks could double check it for you and help spot where anything might be off.

I am unable to get my Wistia embed code to work in 360. When I paste the message says a video cannot be inserted from this embed code. I am not great working with HTML but I do know that Wistia now adds the HTTPS: automatically so I do not have to add that. Any suggestions? Thank you
Hi Derick!
Any chance you can share the embed code you're using here in the discussion thread? I'd like to take a closer look at it and test it in Storyline 360 from my end.
Thanks!

I was able to figure it out on another related post. I needed to use the Fallback Embed Type instead of the default Standard Embed type.
Thank you for your email though!
Kind Regards,
Derick Young
