The Embeddable Social Map feature enables customers to expand the reach of their engagement by integrating the Social Map tool into approved external websites. This allows you to connect with participants in more accessible and familiar digital spaces such as your own website or partner platforms, without directing them away from the content they’re already interacting with.

By embedding the Social Map outside of the Social Pinpoint platform, you can increase visibility and participation while maintaining a seamless and consistent user experience.


Key Features

  • Simple Integration: Easily embed your Social Map using a copy-paste code snippet no complex setup or development required.
  • Real-Time Updates: Any changes published to your Social Map will automatically appear on embedded versions, keeping your content consistent and up to date.
  • Engagement Analytics: Built-in analytics track interactions and report on the traffic source, helping you understand whether participants are engaging directly through Social Pinpoint or via an embedded map.
  • Domain Whitelisting: Control where your Social Map can be embedded by specifying approved domains, ensuring it only appears on trusted sites.

⚙️Setting up the Embed

Embedding the Social Map

Before embedding your Social Map on an external website, make sure to set up the approved domains where it will be used—the embed will only work on whitelisted domains for security reasons.


Step 1: Approve Domains

Only Site Admins can manage allowed domains.

  1. Go to Dashboard > Settings > Integrations > Allowed Embed Domains
  2. Add all the external domains where you plan to embed the Social Map


🔒 This ensures the tool can only be embedded on trusted sites, keeping your data secure and your engagement environment under control.


Step 2: Get the Embed Code

Once your Social Map is created and your domains are approved:

  • Open your Social Map in the admin view
  • Click the Embed button (found at the top right)
  • A popup will appear with:
    • The embed code
    • A Copy Code button for quick access


    • A helpful note reminding you the code will only work on approved domains
    • A link to update the domain list directly from this popup if needed

⛔️ Troubleshooting: Why Isn't My Map Showing?

Your embedded map may display a “Tool not available” message if:

  • The Social Map requires registration
  • The project or page is not published
  • The embed domain isn’t listed under Allowed Embed Domains
  • Anti-spam (CAPTCHA) is enabled

Disable ant-spam and registration or move your project back to published status, then try again.
