I am trying to:
Remove the required URL checkbox verification from the embed field since it is not a url it is an embedded youtube or podcast.
Here is a short loom video showing the issue

hidden link

I've disabled all plugins except toolset and switched to the 2019 theme and it persists.

Hello and thank you for contacting Toolset support.

Well, an embed field must be an URL. It can't be something else. Read more about embeds here https://wordpress.org/support/article/embeds/

This being said, it is expected that the URL validation is enforced in the embed field.

Maybe you are looking to put something else. Can you share it here between <code>[/php] tags?

We are trying to add fields that use some applications embed features like iframes. Whatis the appropriate toolset field type for this?

The more suited field, in this case, is the multiple lines field. However, when trying to display the field, you must display the "raw" value. Does it make sense?
