Adding iFrames using buttons in your RUN

Adding iFrames using buttons in your RUN

Calling iFrames from the sidebar buttons

The TagoIO platform has a very powerful feature when creating your RUN: the possibility to show iFrames in your RUN (RUN is the application that is accessed by your end-users).
What exactly can you do with iFrames in your RUN? Well, you can show components that aren’t native to the TagoIO platform, to exemplify this, take a look at the image below that brings up a RUN with a Google form.

As you can see from the image above, you can add a support center to your RUN. That’s the power of iFrames, it makes the development of your application much more versatile and agile. Now, let’s see how you can get the same effect on your RUN.

How to use iFrames in your RUN

To use iFrames in your RUN, you only need to follow two simple steps, which are as follows:

  • Get the iFrame URL that you want to use; you can use the example above through the following link: https://forms.gle/t1xNbMZjMMb4N6ti9
  • Go to your RUN > Sidebar > Select the option “Show iFrame" and paste the iFrame URL;

It’s as simple as that, and now you have a good use case for iFrames in your RUN. Let me know if you have any questions about this post!
