Troubleshooting

The embed button isn't appearing

Check the snippet placement, the data-study id, and that the study is live.

  • Snippet not on the page: view your page's source and confirm the <script src=".../api/embed.js" ...> tag is present, ideally just before </body>. Site builders sometimes strip script tags; use a custom-code or footer-injection slot.
  • Wrong or missing `data-study`: the snippet must carry the study id exactly as copied from the Recruit tab. Re-copy the snippet rather than editing it by hand.
  • The study is not live: the widget stays hidden for draft and closed studies. Go live and reload.
  • A stale cached page: hard-refresh the page after installing the snippet.
Use Open Demo Page on the embed card to see the widget working with your study before debugging your own site.
