Adding youtube using API (HTTP)

hello, everyone!

I'm trying to add youtube via Dropbox API v2(HTTP).

For example, I have the following code that I upload to Paper.

<h1>Test</h1>
<img src="https://example.com/image.png">

<!-- I want to add Youtube as input media  -->
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v="></a>
<!-- or -->
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/something" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen></iframe>

But, I only get the link or nothing to see...

I want to add Youtube (or Vimeo, Dropbox files, Trello....) as like this via API.

Please tell me how to do?

 

Best regards,

634nami

  • The Dropbox Paper API doesn't offer the ability to programmatically embed media like that, but I'll pass this along as a feature request.

        Just to be clear, I've sent this along as a feature request, but I can't promise if or when it would be added.

        As Greg mentioned above, we don't control over whether or not this feature will be added or when it might be available. However, I did add a +1 to the feature request on your behalf.
