Embed interactive content widgets

Interactive widgets — polls, surveys, and similar content — can live outside an Edition. This lets you reuse the same interactive experience an Author built for email on a landing page, intranet portal, blog post, or any external web page, while responses still flow back into the same reporting.

Before you begin​

  • The interactive content (poll or survey) must already exist and be published in your account. (Confirm the exact publish state in your account.)
  • You need edit access to the target web page's HTML, or a CMS that allows custom embed/HTML blocks.
  • Locate the widget's embed snippet or hosted URL. This is generated per-widget in the interactive content area — (confirm the exact steps in your account).
  • Confirm whether the widget should collect subscriber identity. Embedded on an anonymous public page, responses may be recorded without a known subscriber unless you pass an identifier.

Steps​

  1. Open the poll or survey and generate its embed code. Choose an inline embed (an <iframe> or script snippet) if you want the widget rendered in place, or a hosted link if you prefer to send visitors to a standalone page.
  2. Copy the provided snippet exactly. Do not hand-edit internal IDs or query parameters — they identify which widget receives the responses.
  3. Paste the snippet into your page where the widget should appear. In a CMS, use a raw HTML or embed block rather than the rich-text editor, which may strip scripts and iframes.
  4. If you want responses tied to known subscribers, append the personalization identifier your account supports to the widget URL. See personalization tags for available tokens.
  5. Publish the page and reload it in a fresh browser session.

Result​

The widget renders on your external page. Submit a test response, then confirm it appears in the interactive content's results — the same reporting used when the widget runs inside an Edition. If nothing is recorded, check that scripts and iframes are not blocked by your page's content security policy.
