Embeds

Embeds are tools for incorporating external content, like social media posts, directly onto webpages, enhancing user engagement without compromising site performance and security.

Cloudflare Zaraz introduces server-side rendering for embeds, avoiding third-party JavaScript to improve security, privacy, and page speed. This method processes content on the server side, removing the need for direct communication between the user’s browser and third-party servers.

To add an Embed to Your Website:

  1. Log in to the Cloudflare dashboard, and select your account and domain.
  2. Go to Zaraz > Tools Configuration.
  3. Click “add new tool” and activate the desired tools on your Cloudflare Zaraz dashboard.
  4. Add a placeholder in your HTML, specifying the necessary attributes. For a generic embed, the snippet looks like this:
<componentName-embedName attribute="value"></componentName-embedName>

Replace componentName, embedName and attribute="value" with the specific Managed Component requirements. Zaraz automatically detects placeholders and replaces them with the content in a secure and efficient way.

​​ Examples

​​ X (Twitter) embed

<twitter-post tweet-id="12345"></twitter-post>

Replace tweet-id with the actual tweet ID for the content you wish to embed.

​​ Instagram embed

<instagram-post post-url="https://www.instagram.com/p/ABC/" captions="true"></instagram-post>

Replace post-url with the actual URL for the content you wish to embed. To include posts captions set captions attribute to true.
