How to Use the Embed Slide in AhaSlides

With the Embed slide, you can bring many external tools and websites into your AhaSlides presentation using either an embeddable URL or HTML embed code.

Some content can’t be embedded because of copyright restrictions and can only be viewed on its original platform.

1. Adding a URL or Embed Code

In the Embed slide, enter one of the following into the URL or Embed code field.

URL

Supported URL formats include:

YouTube: https://youtube.com/watch?v=… or https://youtube.com/embed/{videoId}
Google Docs, Sheets, Slides: the link from Publish to the web
Miro: https://miro.com/app/board/{boardId}
Skoletube: https://skoletube.dk/e/{videoId}

Embed Code

You can also paste HTML embed code in the form <iframe src="https://webname.com" …>. For example, this embeds a YouTube video:

<iframe width="560" height="315"
  src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/nW2M-M9suj4?si=iNW64UQNwfcjM9pH&start=10"
  title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0"
  allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share"
  referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>

For a YouTube video you can control autoplay, start time, and end time through the embed code. Add parameters like autoplay=1, start=TIME_IN_SECONDS, and end=TIME_IN_SECONDS to the src URL.For example, to autoplay a video starting at 0:30 and ending at 1:05, add autoplay=1&start=30&end=65. Replace the existing unique identifier (e.g. si=1TXF_LEelk04bjDC) in the src URL with those parameters.

2. Other Options

Caption — adds a caption underneath the embed window.
Also show on audience’s smartphones — tick this box if you want the embedded content (for example, a YouTube video) to appear on your audience’s devices as well.
