Microsoft SharePoint is a web-based collaborative platform, which helps to share files, data, news, and resources across the organization. This step-by-step guide explains how to embed the Walls.io widget on SharePoint sites.
1. Sign-up at Walls.io & set up your social feed
To get started, sign-up for a Walls.io trial.
Setting up your social wall is fairly easy - connect your social media accounts and start adding content sources – i.e. hashtags around your brand and products, LinkedIn company feeds, RSS feeds or your owned social media accounts.

2. Copy the Iframe embed code from your wall
In your Walls.io account, go to "Embed & Display" and copy the Iframe embed code as marked in the screenshot below (it's sufficient to click on the code to copy it to your clipboard):

More tips & tricks:
The Walls.io widget is fully responsive – which means it will automatically adapt to the size of the section you are embedding it to. You can override this by setting fixed width, height, rows, and columns when generating the embed code (we recommend going with the default for maximum layout compatibility).
