Additional Information
This is as designed. Adding a URL Adding a URL not supporting live embedding, such as www.google.com, outside a sidecar only permits the embed to be shown as a card, which functions simply as a link. Cards are not supported in sidecar media panels since it is not a good/expected experience to show a link in a large panel. This is why an error is shown when adding this link to the sidecar. Requirements for live embeds are currently documented in the FAQ at https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-storymaps/get-started/faq.htm#anchor22 and https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-storymaps/get-started/faq.htm#anchor23.Steps to Reproduce
