Custom URL

You can personalize the shared base URL by setting a custom identifier. The custom URL must be unique and should not contain special characters like /, ?, or #.

To set a custom URL:

  1. Toggle the Custom URL option.
  2. Enter a custom value in the input field. If the custom URL entered is already in use, you will be prompted to choose a different one.
  3. Click Save to apply the changes.

Custom URL

The custom URL is case-sensitive
Creating or updating a custom URL will not invalidate the previously generated shared base link. Both the default and custom URLs will remain active unless public access is disabled.

Embeddable Frame

You can embed the shared base into another application using an HTML IFRAME.

To generate an embeddable iframe code:

  1. Click the Share button in the top right corner.
  2. In the Shared base section, click <> to copy the Embeddable IFrame code.

Example:

<iframe
    class="nc-embed"
    src="https://app.nocodb.com/#/nc/base/e3bba9df-4fc1-4d11-b7ce-41c4a3ad6810?embed"
    width="100%"
    height="700"
    style="background: transparent; border: 1px solid #ddd"
>
</iframe>

Here’s an example of a complete HTML document embedding the base:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Sample iFrame Example</title>
</head>
<body style="height:100vh; margin:0">
<iframe src="http://app.nocodb.com/#/base/035c5207-501a-48b8-8dbe-67742b78323e" width="100%" height="100%" style="border: none;"></iframe>
</body>
