3.4. iFrame Plugin

Embedding the Iframe plugin has multiple benefits to keep your participants engaged and provide them with more interactions like a social wall, gamification, and photo booth. 

  • Infinite flexibility: You can embed any website into the live session
  • No context switching: The attendees will interact with the plugin inside the session without losing the context of the session
  • Provides the flexibility to embed any widget of their choice into the live session feed
  • You can use the widgets to drive attendee engagement and interactions during the session for a compelling session experience
  • You can use some of the widgets to accomplish their event goals and also gather feedback from the attendees



Drag and drop the "Iframe plugin" object towards the canvas and other objects like Background Images, Videos & Links and Enter the "iFrame URL" from your desired platform or tool.
