Share / Embed Links Overview
Momento360 makes it easy to share and embed your 360-degree images and Collections using a single link. Whether you want to send a link to someone for viewing or embed it on a website, the same URL works for both.
This guide walks you through how to generate and customize your Share/Embed Link and use it effectively.
1. What is a Share/Embed Link?
A Share/Embed Link is a unique URL that allows others to view your 360 image or Collection. It can be used in two ways:
- Sharing: Simply copy and send the link. Recipients can view the 360 in their browser—no account required.
- Embedding: The same link can be inserted into a website as an iFrame, allowing users to interact with the 360 without leaving the page.
Example of a Share/Embed Link:
https://momento360.com/e/u/your-image-id
- Send this link to someone via email or message → they can open and view it.
- Use this link in an iFrame on a website → it displays the 360 interactively.

2. How to Create a Share/Embed Link
- Open the 360 image or Collection you want to share.
- Click the "Share or Embed a Link" button.
- Choose any optional settings:
- Enable password protection (Paid accounts only).
- Adjust starting view (if needed).
- Enable linked plan drawings to display on open (if applicable).
- Click Copy Link and paste it wherever you want.
🔹 Tip: When a Share Link is generated, it captures the current camera view as the starting point when the link is opened. If no starting point is explicitly set, it defaults to the image's default starting orientation, which can be set separately in the Image Details panel.
3. How to Embed a 360 on Your Website
Since the Share and Embed Link are the same, embedding a 360 is easy:
- Copy your Share Link.
- Paste it into an iFrame like this:
<iframe height="300px" width="75%" allowfullscreen="true" src="https://momento360.com/e/u/your-image-id"></iframe>
- Adjust the height and width as needed.
🔹 Tip: You can customize how the embed looks and behaves using URL parameters.
📌 Best Practice: If you are embedding a lot of 360s on a single webpage, consider using Collections instead of individual embeds to optimize performance.

5. Managing Logos & Watermarks in Embeds
By default, free and personal account users will see a Momento360 watermark on embedded and shared 360s. Pro and Business users can remove or customize the logo.
How to Remove or Change the Logo
- Upgrade to a Pro or Business account.
- Go to Account Settings > Customizations.
- Click Manage Custom Logo and Branding.
- Upload your own logo (max size: 100px x 50px) or remove branding entirely.
🔹 Tip: If you do not upload a custom logo after upgrading, the watermark will be removed, but no logo will appear in its place.
