From today, I am unable to embed a YouTube video. I have been using Sway for a couple of years and never run into this problem before. I'm getting the following message:
Sorry, something went wrong. We can't convert this embed code.
I am clicking 'share'. Then 'embed' and finally 'copy' from YouTube.com.
Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you.

This problem keeps reappearing. Some days it works, other days there is the same issue. It's very frustrating and annoying. I still don't need the best way to handle this. I've tried different ways as suggested across the internet, but it seems more pot luck than anything else.
None of the 'fixes' given work for me.
I had the same issue. Click OK when you get the "Something went wrong," notice and leave the card there. Preview the "Design" next to the "Story" tab in the top left.
The embedded video will be in the "finished" product and should play without issue.
