Typebot Embedding
The Core Issue for Typebot Embedding:
The standard Typebot URL (https://typebot.co/[your-typebot-slug]) requires an embedding platform to either render it within an iframe or execute associated JavaScript to display the fully interactive chatbot experience. Some platforms that accept URL embeds do not automatically handle iframes or execute external JavaScript in a way that renders Typebot correctly. Instead, they often expect the URL to directly serve a self-contained, visually interactive element.
The Question for Clarification:
Considering that certain platforms embedding URLs have limitations in automatically rendering content that relies on iframes or external JavaScript, what architectural considerations or potential alternative URL formats could Typebot explore to enable a more direct rendering of the fully interactive chatbot experience when the main Typebot URL is embedded?
Specifically:
Are there any mechanisms Typebot could implement so that the primary Typebot URL, when embedded, inherently serves the interactive elements in a way that doesn't depend on the embedding platform's explicit handling of iframes or JavaScript?
Could alternative URL endpoints or parameters be developed that would allow platforms with simpler URL fetching capabilities to directly display a fully functional and interactive Typebot? In many cases, only the metadata (description and image) are displayed.
Understanding Typebot's architectural constraints and potential future directions regarding more direct URL rendering for interactive embeds would be valuable for users seeking broader compatibility across various embedding platforms.
