Make sure you use the actual URL, NOT the Share button link

Did you include the full URL?  The https:// portion is required.

I was having an issue with a YouTube link failing as well, and wanted to add my find to this thread in case anyone runs across it having an issue later since this post came up in my search for a solution.

We were trying to use URLs of YouTube videos that are part of a list, and that did not work.  We had to find the URLs of just the videos, completely unassociated from the list, and then those plain URLs worked fine.
