Embedding settings

Some ShapeDiver accounts let users embed online models in external websites and applications, either through iframe embedding or through direct embedding using the viewer API.

Each ShapeDiver account only allows embedding in a limited number of external domains, which varies depending on the type of account. In the “Settings” screen of the user dashboard, users can check how many external domains are enabled for their account, as well as add and/or remove domains from their list.

Domain formatting

Add only full domains to the list (that is the hostname part of your URL, including the port number if you are using a non-standard one, i.e. everything after http:// https://). Be aware that the precise hostname is being checked, i.e. subdomains need to be added individually. As an example allowing shapediver.com for embedding does not automatically allow www.shapediver.com. 

Local testing

You can add local hostnames and ports in order to set up a local development environment (e.g. localhost:8081 or 127.0.0.1:8080). Those domains do not count towards your domain limit, therefore you can setup as many as you want.

Domains of the form *.local and *.localhost (with optional ports as well) also do not count towards your domain limit.
