Page Tempates with custom fields

Hi, I am trying to create a page template for my site that displays a different youtube video at the top of every page. I need the template to have parameters that could be filled through its own little widget on the side of my editor or just another page attribute?

My template looks something like this:

<?php
/*
Template Name: Video 
Template Post Type: post
*/

get_header(); ?>

<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/[YOUTUBE_ID]" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" width="100%" height="450" frameborder="0"></iframe>

<?php
get_sidebar();
get_footer();

Instead of hard coding a single youtube vid, the “[YOUTUBE_ID]” part could be replaced with whatever video id I put in that field. Is this possible?
