# How to embed a Canvas into Squarespace

Now that you have [<mark style="color:purple;">**copied the embed link or the embed code**</mark>](https://help.canoa.supply/docs/share/how-to-embed-a-canvas/..#two-ways-to-embed-a-canvas) of your Canvas, let's learn how to paste this embed code into the third-party website hosting platform, Squarespace, in order to share and show your Canvas in a unique way on your site.

Embedding enriches your website with an interactive window of the Canvas. It takes hyperlinking to the next level, and let's you keep all your information in one place. The **Embed** block in Squarespace gives you the power to add custom blocks of code to your sites.&#x20;

## Add an embed block in Squarespace <a href="#h_01hkx07zg1rpaz2z4cd43gjjpx" id="h_01hkx07zg1rpaz2z4cd43gjjpx"></a>

* Launch Squarespace.
* Edit a page or post, click **Add Block** or an insert point, and click **Embed**.&#x20;
* Open the block editor by clicking the **pencil** icon or **Edit** on the block.
* Paste the **URL** of the Canvas you're embedding.&#x20;
* If the Canvas doesn't appear, click **Code snippet** in the block editor on a computer and paste an embed code manually into the text field.

As you can see below, the preferred view of this Canvas is now correct because the URL with the x, y, width, and height axises is included within the embed data in Squarespace.
