Embedding Word Documents
Searching for a way to embed a Word Document?
Note: Typically, If you need to embed a Word Doc in your page, it must be hosted online first. There are several ways you can do that. This is due to the fact that Business Office 365 accounts do not allow iframe embedding of their docs directly.

Adding an Embed Block
Step 1. Choose Embed from the new block menu in your page.
Step 2. You'll see a list of embed options available. Choose the Microsoft Word option.
Step 3. You'll then see this form. Time to head to where your Word Doc is hosted online, so you and get your embed code.
Add an Embed Widget
Step 1. Anywhere you're able to click on the + symbol in your Qwilr Pages and Templates, you'll now see the option to add embedded content from services like Microsoft Word.
Step 2. From here, you'll see Categories - in this case select Documents and then Microsoft Word.
Hosting your Word Doc online
To be embedded, your Word Doc needs to be hosted online, and made publicly available. Private docs can't be embedded in Qwilr.
You can use any of these services to host your Doc:
- Google Drive: If you upload your Word Doc to Google Drive, you'll then be able to embed it in a Qwilr Page. Here's how to get the embed code from Google Drive.
- Dropbox: Similarly, you can upload your Word Doc to Dropbox. Here's how to get the embed code from Dropbox.
OneDrive: Upload your Word Doc to OneDrive. Here's how to get the embed code for your Qwilr Page.
- Note: you may also try opening the doc from OneDrive to the web version of that Word Doc, and clicking share and then embed there to gather the code.
Step 4. Head back to your Qwilr page now. Paste the embed code into the box and click See It.
That's it! You should now be able to see your document in your Qwilr Page.
