Problem/Motivation

Hello good Drupal people. Client uses Piwik Pro for cookie consent and analytics. Recently they asked us why they can't get data from embedded Youtube videos in one site since they are able to get the data in another site.

The difference is that in the former site Youtube videos are provided Oembedded with core Remote video and in the latter they embed Youtube urls straight to the text editor.

I at least hope that they want to stick to the Oembed version, but is there anything to do in Drupal to this? I have understood that Oembed wraps the Youtube video to another iframe for security, and while Piwik Pro analytics can see the video itself, it can't get the clicks or states or events from it.

Has someone had a similar situation and how have you improved it?

Many thanks for all the insights!

HI, the Drupal Core issue queue is not the ideal place for support requests. The 'support request' option is there for filing support issues for contributed modules and themes. There are several support options listed on our Support page, including the Drupal Forums and Drupal Answers. There is also Drupal Slack. You may get better replies in one of those places.
Cheers
