Insert a video from YouTube or another site (MacOS)
In PowerPoint for Office 365 for Mac or PowerPoint 2019 for Mac, you can insert an online video from YouTube or Vimeo on a slide.
In PowerPoint for Office 365 for Mac, Insiders can also insert an online video from Microsoft Stream, a video service for enterprises—people in an organization can upload, view, and share videos with one another. This feature requires PowerPoint for Office 365 for Mac version 16.22 or later.
The video plays directly from the website, and it has the site's controls for playing, pausing, volume, and so on. The PowerPoint playback features (Fade, Bookmark, Trim, and so on) don't apply to online videos.
Because the video is stored on a web site, rather than in your presentation, you must be connected to the internet in order for the video to play successfully.
In your web browser, locate the video you want.
Copy the URL of the web page from the Address bar of your browser.
Switch to PowerPoint and select the slide where you want to place the video.
On the Insert tab of the ribbon, in the Media group at the right end, select Video. Then select Online Movie.
In the dialog box, paste the URL you copied in step 2.
Click Insert.
The video is added to the slide.
To preview the video, click the Play button that appears on top of video.
See Insert and play a video file from your computer for all the details.
This feature requires a recent version of macOS and PowerPoint for macOS:
PowerPoint version 16.15.18070902 or newer
macOS 10.12 (Sierra) or macOS 10.13.4 (High Sierra) and later.
