In the context of Actimo, an embed module typically refers to a feature that allows you to embed external content into your platform, such as videos, forms, or web pages. This content can be integrated directly within your messages, providing a seamless experience for users without needing to navigate away from the message interface.

For example, an embed module could be used to insert a YouTube video, a Google Form, or an iframe to show an external website or resource within a message, allowing admins to share multimedia or interactive content directly with their audience.


What is an iframe (inline frame)?

  • An HTML element known also as an inline frame

  • Can embed HTML documents within other HTML documents

  • The HTML document rendered by the iframe is encapsulated within its own browsing context

In Actimo, an iframe (an inline frame) is a design element in the message composer that can embed external content.


What you need from your external source?

URL

Example:

OR

iframe tag

Example:

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/7XzfWHdDS9Q?si=8uSn9vIP8o1fN57Q" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>


Where you can find URL or iframe tag?

  • Click on 'Share'

  • You will find a URL that can be copied

  • You can find the iframe tag if you click on 'Embed'
