In working with the Organization Chart Block, it would be really neat if we could just embed the block dashboard view instead of having to have the entire base embedded in a website. It would help our site look a lot cleaner.

Thanks!

Embedding blocks is in beta testing right now… I believe you can still request to sign up for it at this link: https://airtable.com/shrLK2dGvhx46S6bU

However, to embed a block, you still need to give be okay with someone having access to the entire base. It puts a little button in the corner of the block that says “Show Data”, which upon clicking shows all of the tables in the base.

Hopefully when the full feature is released, there will at least be an option to remove that button. For most of my use cases, the only reason I want to share just the block is because I don’t want everyone to see all of the data. :slightly_smiling_face:

I would also like to ask if this feature is actually available at all with or without showing the underlying data. Thanks!

Hi everyone! Unfortunately, I’m not privy to if/when the feature will be out of beta testing, or if the “Show Data” button will removed when it is. My understanding is that with the way that airtable is structured, it’s extremely difficult from a software developer’s standpoint to allow blocks to be embedded while simultaneously keeping the data secure. Fingers crossed that someday soon this feature is widely available :+1:t2:
