Create a Flockler feed
To create a social feed, go to https://flockler.com/ and create an account. After you've signed up and created a feed of content, you can select a display style you like. Navigate to the Display tab and create a new display layout.
After creating the layout, click the Preview button on the feed you want to embed.
In the new browser tab that opens, copy the URL from the address bar so you can paste it into your Webex Event App.
Embed your Flockler feed in Webex Events
First, add a Web Link feature to your Event App, edit it, and enter the URL that you copied in the previous step. Uncheck the 'Open link in external browser' box so the feed embeds in your Event App's web version. You don't need to use the 'Pass Data to URL' checkbox.
💡 Keep in mind, to change the feature name and icon to better reflect your social media feed, click the feature's Settings (⚙️) icon to change them.
Attendees using the web version can interact with your embedded feed content without leaving the Event App.
Mobile App users can tap the feature to launch the feed in their device's default browser. Now you know all about embedding Flockler in your Event App!
