When working with the embed element in Webflow, you have the ability to use various parameters to customize and edit it. Here are some parameters that can be used:

  1. Source URL: This parameter allows you to specify the URL of the content you want to embed. It could be a video from YouTube or Vimeo, a map from Google Maps, or any other third-party content that supports embedding.

  2. Width and Height: These parameters control the dimensions of the embedded element. You can set the width and height either in pixels or as a percentage of the container's width and height.

  3. Alignment: You can use the "align" parameter to define how the embedded element should be positioned within its container. This parameter accepts values like "left", "right", "center", and "justify".

  4. Autoplay: If you want the embedded content to start automatically when the page loads, you can use the "autoplay" parameter. This parameter is commonly used with embedded videos.

  5. Controls: The "controls" parameter allows you to show or hide the controls for the embedded content. For example, if you're embedding a video, you can use this parameter to disable the play/pause buttons or the progress bar.

  6. Loop: If you want the embedded content to play in a continuous loop, you can use the "loop" parameter. This is often used for background videos or animated sequences.

  7. Parameters specific to the embedded content: Depending on the type of content you're embedding, there may be additional parameters available. For example, if you're embedding a Google Map, you can specify the map's coordinates, zoom level, and other options.

By using these parameters, you have the flexibility to customize the appearance and behavior of the embedded element in Webflow.
