Embeddable Links

The link
icon appears in various places in your account, including series details and dZBoards. Wherever you see it, dataZoa provides a link to the data or board being shown. The link is ready to copy and paste into a webpage or blog frame.

For displays, the link icon appears in the footer of displays if you enable it when creating the display. The link provided there is pre-wrapped in an iframe element to preserve the dimension of the display wherever it is embedded.

If you allow a display to be posted publicly, be sure that related series are marked as public. When a private series is viewed outside its account, and its title shows as "Unavailable" its values show "NA."
You can always see the "framed" link in the display editor.


  • When you send displays and data from dataZoa, you are typically circulating live, automatically updating work.
  • Everyone who sees your displays stays current with your own view.
  • This is very different from the typical "snapshot" approach of sending around files or images.
  • To send a "snapshot" that does not update, just make a PDF and circulate that file.
