- On the Landing Page tab, select File as the block type.
- In the second drop-down menu called Select file source, Select Embed.
- Copy the link of the content you want to embed and paste that link into the "Embed URL" field.
- The embedded content will display directly on the activity detail page where the member can interact with it.
You can also embed external content as Attached Media in Albums.
- From the Media tab in the activity creation flow, select the Attached Media Embed button. A pop-up will display.
- Copy the link of the content you want to embed and paste the link into the Embed Code text field in the pop-up.
