You can use this Embed tool for a multitude of websites. You will simply need to find the embed link and then paste it into our Embed component!

If the link you try to embed doesn’t work, we recommend trying to use just the URL instead of the iframe. Similarly, if the URL doesn’t work, we recommend trying to use the iframe.
