# Finding and copying a video's embed code

If you need to add a video to a website using embed code, you can copy it form the video's **Share** tab.

1. Go to [youtube.com](https://www.youtube.com/) and find the video you would like to embed.&#x20;
2. Beneath the video, click the **Share** tab. Then click the **Embed** tab.
3. In the Video size area, select an embed size for your video.&#x20;
4. To prevent YouTube from playing other videos after the embeded video has played, deselect **Share with playlist starting from**.
5. To copy the embed code of the video, select all of the code in the iframe area. Be sure to include both iframe tags (including the `<` and `>` symbols.)
6. Copy this code. You can paste this code into any Content Management System that allows YouTube embed code.&#x20;
