Embed a widget in Notion

Choose the public or the private Embed link of a Blocky widget, paste it into a Notion page, and fix an Embed that doesn't show.

On this pageShow sections

You show a Blocky widget in Notion by pasting one of its Embed links into a Notion embed block. Each widget has a public link and a private link.

Choose the public or the private link

  • Public link. The Embed has no owner actions: no Refresh Data and no Embed background change. Viewers can still use the widget's own controls, such as the history in a Habit tracker or a Mood tracker, and Blocky saves those changes. Use the public link on pages that other people see.
  • Private link. The Embed adds the Quick Actions menu with owner actions. See Use owner actions in a private Embed. The private URL works for anyone who has it, so keep it on pages that you control.

Copy the link

  1. On the dashboard, click Copy on the widget card. The Copy embed link dialog opens.
  2. Choose the Public or the Private tab.
  3. Click the copy button beside the link.

For more about the two links, see Copy a public or private Embed link.

Add the link to Notion

  1. Open the Notion page where the widget should appear.
  2. Type /embed and choose Embed.
  3. Paste the Blocky embed link.
  4. Confirm the embed.
  5. Resize the embed block if the widget needs more space.

Fix an Embed that doesn't show

  • Widget not found or Private embed not found means that the widget may have been deleted, or that the link is no longer valid. If the widget is still on your dashboard, copy its link again.
  • Widget can't be displayed means that the widget's saved content is invalid. The editor can't open the widget either: Edit on its card shows Failed to open the widget editor. To show the widget again, create a new widget and paste its Embed link in place of the old one. You can then delete the old widget.
  • If Refresh Data is missing from a private Embed, the widget's owner has no subscription, or the widget has no Notion source.
