Embedding guides

Kakadu Play guides can be embedded on your website with an iframe. An embedded Kakadu Play iframe will look something like this:

<iframe src="https://play.kakadu.no/embed/bankid/id-kontroll-med-pass-som-metode/4491d2fa-cac3-4647-b6f5-4251bcbd79f9" loading="lazy" width="100%" height="580px" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" />
The embed code for the above iframe looks like this.

Embed code

When you’re logged into the Kakadu Play dashboard, you can copy the embed code for any guide. Or paste a guide URL below to generate one:

<iframe src="https://play.kakadu.no/embed/bankid/id-kontroll-med-pass-som-metode/4491d2fa-cac3-4647-b6f5-4251bcbd79f9" loading="lazy" width="100%" height="580px" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" />

Changing colors

By default, buttons in the Kakadu Play embeds are Kakadu green™. If you want to change this color to better fit your brand, you can append a query parameter button-color with a URL-encoded 6-character hex color value. For example %235994ce, where %23 is the encoded hash sign.

Starting from this embed code:

<iframe src="https://play.kakadu.no/embed/bankid/id-kontroll-med-pass-som-metode/4491d2fa-cac3-4647-b6f5-4251bcbd79f9" loading="lazy" width="100%" height="580px" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" />

With a custom button color %235994ce, the embed code will look like this:

<iframe src="https://play.kakadu.no/embed/bankid/id-kontroll-med-pass-som-metode/4491d2fa-cac3-4647-b6f5-4251bcbd79f9?button-color=%235994ce" loading="lazy" width="100%" height="580px" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" />
Note that ?button-color=%235994ce was appended to the src URL.

With that blue color, an embed will look something like this:
