Using the Embed Object

  • Last updated:

You can embed items into WorkRamp using the URL or web address, or if you want more a bit more granular control over the items you are embedding, you can input the embed code.

When embedding a URL, if you see any errors, we recommend toggling the Skip Processing option on:

When pasting in an embed code, we recommend adjusting the embed code to ensure it appears in line with your other WorkRamp content objects.

Example: 

<iframe src="https://embed.getguru.com/card/c8R64jEi/WorkRamp-News-" frameBorder="0" width="500" height="400" style="margin:10px;max-height:100%;max-width:100%" allowFullScreen></iframe>

We recommend removing the margin:10px; so that the object is left aligned correctly with your other content objects. In the above example, you could pair the code down to: 

<iframe src="https://embed.getguru.com/card/c8R64jEi/WorkRamp-News-" allowFullScreen></iframe>

Here is an example of how an embed code would appear:

FAQ

  1. Will I be able to search for content that is embedded in a Guide, Resource, etc?

    1. No - this is a technical limitation not unique to WorkRamp, whereby content that is embedded is not indexed and therefor not searchable on the platform it is embedded on. Generally, the iframe or embedded content is a shortcut to seeing the content in another place, but without a deep integration, the contents from the source file will not be scraped and therefor not searchable.

  2. Why does my Guide page sometimes jump back to the top of the page?

    1. This is a known issue with the Google Chrome browser. Since this is a browser specific setting, WorkRamp won't be able to make any changes to correct this experience. One thing to note is that this will typically only happen the first time the embedded content loads.

  3. The link I'm trying to embed is not embedding

    1. If you've already have Skip Processing toggled on, you may need to check with the source of the site to see if they allow embedding of their pages.

    2. If you're getting an x-frame error, this means the site does not allow embedding of their pages. We have more details on that here.
