Yard iFrame Integration

Get the iFrame

Integrating and using the Yard iFrame is free of charge, but it requires approval by Yard. Here are the steps to get up and running:

  1. You have to send an integration request to Yard explaining the use case of the calendar and where you want to install it (website URL). After your request was accepted, you will get an authorization code, which is necessary to run the plugin.
  2. After your integration request was accepted (step 1), you can include the following HTML line in your website exactly at the position where you would like to show the Yard Calendar:
    <script src="https://www.yard.global/yard-iframe.js?code=your_activation_code" class="yard-iframe" defer></script>
    Be sure to replace your_activation_code with your actual activation code you received from Yard. Note that this script will inject the Yard Calendar as iframe tag when the script is called.
  3. After you copied the code (step 2) to your website and saved it, your calendar will appear. You can also include multiple calendars on the same page: simply include another script tag on your web page. To configure each iFrame, see the details in the next section "Configuration".

Example integration

This example will show fintech events in Germany: <script src="https://www.yard.global/yard-iframe.js?code=your_activation_code&topic=fintech&country=Germany"></script>

Be sure to replace your_activation_code with your actual activation code you received. Yard is working on creating a management interface for the parameters, so that you don't have to play around with programming code.
