Additional Information

Google Drive's "shareable links" do not permit embedding into other web pages. They are intended for sharing a link that the recipient can open and interact with the file.

Workaround

Instead of selecting the Video option in the block palette, select the Embed option, and use the following syntax:

<iframe src="VIDEOLINK" width="640" height="480"></iframe>
