How to Find the Embed Codes
The embed code can be found in the Snap’s lower menu in the Share section. Just click the “link” icon to bring up embed options
From here, a menu will open up and give you a few embed options. The default code is a Javascript code that can be pasted into most website. An alternative option is to use the iFrame code for websites that don’t allow Javascript
Embed Type: Responsive – Responsive embed types will resize your snap to fit the device and screen size of the user viewing. You can edit the starting shape and size of the snap using the Advanced Size Settings.
Embed Type: Fixed Size – Fixed embeds will retain their size and shape no matter which device is viewing them. You can set the Snap size in the Advanced Size Settings tab.
