Embedding
Embed media tab provides you with the embed code for the scene. The embed code is perfect for sharing the content on your own website or on a different platform, such as your LMS.

Sample embed codes, as well as more notes regarding ThingLink embeds, are available in this article.
Sharing links & QR codes
Share link provides a shareable link that directs viewers to the page you are currently on. They will not need to sign up or log in to see the content if its privacy setting is 'Public' or 'Unlisted'. You can also check the 'Hide ThingLink interface' box to share the content in full-screen mode or select 'Accessibility player' to .
You can click the 'QR code' button below the link to get a shareable QR code:
Sharing to social media
Publish to social tab allows you to post the shareable link directly to Facebook, Twitter and Google Classroom. Please note that ThingLinks will stay interactive only on Twitter - you can read more about it here.
Embed ThingLinks in PowerPoint presentations

Downloading for offline use

Changing the privacy settings
If you intend to share your work with someone who does not have a ThingLink account, you'll need to change the privacy setting to 'Unlisted' or 'Public'. Click the 'More actions' (three dots) button on the scene's page, then click 'Privacy settings' and select one of the options in the popup window:
