Youtube Video Tracking - Adobe Launch

[pradeep_07]

Hi ,

I am trying to track YouTube engagement on the site , is there any documentation which clearly explains YouTube tracking  in adobe analytics?

Currently following: https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-platform/tags/extensions/adobe/youtube/overview.h... but there is a slight flickering issue.

Thanks,

Pradeep

@pradeep_07  This extension is used to track data and send it adobe analytics, not sure why this would cause a flickering issue, can you please ensure this embed iframe tag is implemented as per this documentation

When the extension loads, it updates all of your YouTube videos to ensure that they have the required parameters in the "src" URLs. Doing so causes your browser to reload the videos with the new URLs. That reload causes the flicker.

The only way to avoid that is to ensure that your YouTube URLs contain the "?enablejsapi=1" parameter already (and preferably the "origin" parameter too).
