What Are Mimeeq Embeds?
Embeds are snippets of code that you can place on your website to display Mimeeq 3D configurators or product catalogs. Each embed type serves a specific purpose, from displaying product catalogs to enabling individual product configuration. All embeds are controlled through embed templates, which give you centralized control over styling, behavior, and settings.
Mimeeq provides several types of embeds that allow you to integrate 3D configurators, product lists, B2B baskets, and authentication embeds for user login/registration. This guide covers the available embed types, their capabilities, and how to customize them using embed templates.

Embed Templates Settings
There are many configuration options available for Embed Templates. For a detailed breakdown of each setting, see the Embed Template Settings Guide.
Embedding Code on Your Website
After setting up your embed templates and configuring all the necessary settings, you're ready to embed Mimeeq products on your website.
Code Structure
Every embed consists of two parts:
<!-- Container with short code -->
<div data-mimeeq-product="SHORT_CODE"></div>
<!-- Script loader -->
<script src="https://mimeeq-embed-url.js"></script>
1. Shortcode
The shortcode is a unique identifier (e.g., GP9V9M) that references your specific product or product list configuration.
Example use case: You might store different shortcodes in your CMS and dynamically insert them based on which category page a user visits, allowing you to show relevant products without changing the HTML structure.
2. Full HTML Snippet
The snippet is a complete HTML code block (typically 2-3 lines) that includes the Mimeeq script and your configuration parameters.
Example use case: Use full snippet for static website implementations to embed single products or product list.
Basic Embedding Process
- Copy the embed code from Mimeeq Admin
- Paste it into your website:
- For shortcodes: Insert into your CMS's dynamic content field
- For full snippets: Paste directly into your HTML where you want the configurator to appear
- Verify the embed by loading your webpage - the Mimeeq configurator should appear according to your template settings
