## Enable Live Preview sharing

First, you need to enable Live Preview sharing for your template. To do this, find the template you want to embed in your website and open the **Preview popup**, then click on the **Settings** tab and enable the **Live Preview** sharing.

Copy the link from the **Live Preview** section. This link will be used to embed the image generator in your website. **Remember to save the changes.**

> You can verify if the Live Preview sharing is enabled by opening the link in your browser. You should see the image generator with the template you want to embed in your website.

## Embed the image generator in your website


To embed the image generator in your website, you need to use the following HTML code:

```html
<iframe
  src="https://renderform.io/share/live-preview/?i=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
  width="100%"
  height="500px"
  frameborder="0"
>
</iframe>
```

Put the HTML code in the place where you want to embed the image generator in your website.
Replace the link for the `src` attribute with the link that you copied from the **Live Preview** section.

## Image generator embedded in website

As a result, you will see the image generator embedded in your website. You and your users can use the image generator to generate images for the given template.

Your API Key is not exposed to the public, so you can safely embed the image generator in any public website to allow your users to generate images for the given template.
> Please be aware that anyone who has access to the link can generate unlimited images for the given template, and this can lead to excessive usage of your RenderForm credits until the Live Preview sharing is disabled.

## Customizing the Live Preview properties

To make your Live Preview more user-friendly, you can hide some properties from the Live Preview. This is useful if you want to allow your users to customize only specific parts of the template and hide the complexities of the template from them.
