1. Pre-requisites

  • Airmeet community should be in Appsumo, Premium Webinar, Virtual events, or All-In-Suite.
  • An iframe code to add to the URL.

2. Use cases

  • Mentimeter integration for interactive PowerPoint presentation
  • Filling out the feedback form in the live session
  • Play your Spotify podcast



3. Overview


The iframe embedding will let the organizer embed widgets of their choice into the live event feed RHS. This is in addition to the native integrations (donor box and Kahoot) already available.


The organizer will be able to enable only one widget at a time. The widget can be highlighted in chat.



Note: Videos will be updated soon.





4. Why Embed iframe in a Live session?


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


Few Popular iFrame plugins platforms


  • Social media - Walls.io, Twitter
  • Photobooth - Snapbar.
  • Gamification - Kahoot, Playpager, Noonah.
  • The survey, poll, quiz - Typeform, Slido, Mentimeter:
  • Fundraiser - Pledge.to, GoFundMe.
  • Digital poster - iPosters.


5. How to embed an Iframe in a Live session?


Step 1: Go to the Backstage/Stage of your particular session.


Step 2: Click on the Manage tab (vertical layout) and select the "Activities" tab.


Step 3: Select "Iframe plugins" and toggle the button towards the right to enable it. The iframe plugin will appear as a new tab after Chat, Q&A, and Polls.




Step 4: Enter the iframe 'Embed code' or 'URL' and provide a name to the tab.

 




If you have a JavaScript snippet that looks something like:


<div style="left: 0; width: 100%; height: 0; position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%;"><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/sIP3mAqIdNY?rel=0" style="top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute; border: 0;" allowfullscreen scrolling="no" allow="accelerometer; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture;"></iframe></div>

You only need to use the URL after "src," as highlighted above.



Iframe Plugin View




You can also enter the embedded code if needed.


Click on the Add URL button > Enter the URL code, and tick the consent checkbox.




5.1. Enable the Widget in the chat


Step 5: You can enable a widget in the chat to redirect the session participants to the iframe tab.


Enter the Widget Title & Call to Action Text displayed on the session-level chat.

Step 6: Click on "Save" once the code is embedded. You can view the iframe plugin on the session's right-hand side and interact with the same.




6. Why isn't my iframe Code/integration loading?


The iframe code might not be working as you need some cookies to be enabled from the site the iframe code is being embedded.





7. Things to keep in mind


  • Only 1 iframe plugin can be embedded in a particular session.

  • If you want to embed the same plugin on every session, you need to embed it manually on each session.

  • Some websites don't allow embedding their links in iFrames.

  • Ensure the links embedded are safe to use and not too resource-heavy

  • Iframe Plugins are supported in Airmeet mobile applications.
