We make active use of google drive in my organization, and would like to encourage sharing of screencasts and webinar recordings using google drive via discourse. I just attempted this and it does not onebox properly.

Am I doing this wrong, or can oneboxing of google drive videos be considered as a new feature? It seems to me that this should be possible via these steps:

- upload video to drive, wait for it to process
- share video with public (“anyone on the internet can find and view”)
- get embed code
- paste URL from embed code on its own line in discourse post
