Hi @felicia 

This guide should get you to what you need:  How do I upload and embed media from an external source in the Rich Content Editor as an instructor...

If you just want to link to the You Tube  video:

• Locate the desired video in You Tube,
• Click Share and copy the link code,
• In canvas locate the page on which you want the link,
• Click Edit,
• Type the name of the video, then
• Select that name and follow this guide:

Embedding is much better for most users because it does not take the user our of the Canvas classroom.
