Social Media Content

caution

Unfortunately, due to the constant development of other social media platforms and frequent changes of the privacy policy, it is not possible to keep this information up to date. Therefore every section has a link to the help center to get further information.

Share your Profile

If you only want to link your profile, it’s better to add it directly through your Profile. You can find more information about this in section Edit Social Links.

Every platform prevents it's own way to embed posts. In the most cases you can decide if you want to show a whole profile or just a specific post. Every Platform serves an iframe Code for specific Content to share. In case of display Issues, it is recommended to use the iframe Code.

X

To embed posts you need a link, not a code.

Single Post

Next to the post are 3 dots inside X. Use this dots to open a submenu and select "embed post". You will get redirected to another subpage of X where you can find an input field filled with a link. Copy this link and go to your Arrival.Space. Paste it inside the "link" field of a Gate and select Web Link.

Profile / Multiple Posts

If you want to show a whole profile or multiple posts just go to the Profile you want to use and copy the link in the browser address. Copy this link and go to your Arrival.Space. Paste it inside the "link" field of a Gate and select Web Link.

LinkedIn

Single Post

Every post has 3 dots at the top right corner. Use this and select Embed this post. Copy the Code and go back to Arrival.Space. Paste it inside the "link" field of a Gate and select Web Link.

Profile

For getting the right Link for a Profile, click at the profile image inside LinkedIn. At the top there will be two buttons labeled with "Message" and "Profile". Click on Profile and copy the link of the browser address. Copy this link and go to your Arrival.Space. Paste it inside the "link" field of a Gate and select Web Link.

Instagram

To embed posts you need a link, not a code.

Single Post

For getting a single post you need to open the specific post inside the browser. It ends with &img_index= and after the equal sign is a number. Click on Profile and copy the link of the browser address. Copy this link and go to your Arrival.Space. Paste it inside the "link" field of a Gate and select Web Link.

YouTube

YouTube offers several share options. You can either use the Share button to generate a link or simply copy the link from the browser’s address bar.

From the browser address bar:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jTDvDi_ym8
Share link:
https://youtu.be/7jTDvDi_ym8?si=FMJlm4eWDhiP2ewx

Supported Parameters

At the end of YouTube URLs, you’ll often find various letter-number combinations.
In addition to the YouTube Video ID (7jTDvDi_ym8 in this case), several other parameters are supported and described below.

start

Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jTDvDi_ym8&start=10

To change the starting point of a video, add &start=duration_in_seconds to the end of the link.
In the example above, the video will start at 10 seconds.

end

Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jTDvDi_ym8&end=10

To change the end point of a video, add &end=duration_in_seconds to the end of the link.
In the example above, the video will stop playing after 10 seconds.

loop

Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jTDvDi_ym8&loop=1&playlist=7jTDvDi_ym8

To play a video in a loop, you need two parameters:

  1. loop=1 (to enable looping)
  2. playlist=VIDEO_ID (the same YouTube ID must be added as a playlist reference).

playlist

Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jTDvDi_ym8&playlist=7jTDvDi_ym8

The playlist parameter can also be used independently.
To do so, add &playlist=PLAYLIST_ID at the end of the URL.

mute

Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jTDvDi_ym8&mute=1

You can mute a video by adding &mute=1.
It’s recommended to include this parameter when using autoplay.

autoplay

Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jTDvDi_ym8&autoplay=1

The autoplay parameter automatically starts the video when loaded.
Use &autoplay=1 to enable and &autoplay=0 to disable it.

controls

Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jTDvDi_ym8&controls=0

If you want to hide YouTube’s default video controls (to prevent users from skipping or changing settings), add &controls=0 to the URL.

Adding Mutliple Parameters

You can also combine multiple parameters. They are always connected using the & symbol.

Beispiel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jTDvDi_ym8&start=10&end=25&mute=1&controls=0

caution

Each Url needs at least one ?. If it isn't defined like here https://youtu.be/7jTDvDi_ym8 you would add it like that: https://youtu.be/7jTDvDi_ym8?start=10&end=25&mute=1&controls=0
