I uploaded to Youtube a video created during a zoom meeting. Now I want to include the link to that video in a Constant Comment message. The video cannot be made public because the contant is private. In YouTube, the video is marked "unlisted." How do I insert the link for that video? I want to give the link to everyone who gets the CC message, but I don't want the video to open inside the message. I want the video to open only if the recipient clicks on the link.

Videos can't be embedded into emails. If you're worried about even the thumbnail showing when linking to the video, then instead of using a video block I'd advise using an alternative linking method:
