Create your flipbook
After creating your account, start creating your first flipbook, following these instructions.
When your flipbook is ready to share, click the Shareable link button. In the modal that appears, click the Copy link button. You can also grab the 'Trackable link' that lets you get notifications and further insight into the flipbook, such as how many times it was opened or how long it was open. Read FlippingBook's article about how trackable links work for more information.
Embed FlippingBook in Webex Events
Now that you've copied the flipbook link, you're ready to embed it in your Event App.
If you'd like a dedicated feature in your Event App where folks can use the flipbook, the Web Link feature is a great option.
Simply add the Web Link feature to your Event App, edit it, then enter the URL that you copied in the previous step. Make sure you uncheck the 'Open link in external browser' box so the flipbook will embed in your Event App's web experience. 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 flipbook, simply click the feature's Settings (⚙️) icon to change them.
Attendees using the web version can interact with your embedded flipbook content without leaving the Event App.
Mobile App users can click the flipbook feature to launch the content in their device's default browser.
Now you know all about using FlippingBook in your Event App!
