Embed by.Video meeting rooms into any web or app interface

With a single embed script, you can seamlessly integrate by.Video meeting rooms into your website, portal, intranet, or application.

How to Embed

1. Create a new page

Add a new page (e.g. /meet) where the video meeting will load. The meeting app will expand to fill the entire viewport.

2. Insert the embed script

Add this script tag inside the <body> of your new page:

<script src="https://by.video/embed?rid=<rid>"></script>

Replace <rid> with your chosen room ID (alphanumeric, 4-16 characters, case-sensitive).
All participants must use the same rid to join the same room.
Use different rids to host multiple meetings.

How it Works

The embed script automatically adds an <iframe> to your page that loads the by.Video meeting app. Any other content in the <body> will appear below the meeting window.

Embed Examples

One fixed meeting room

Create /meet and use a fixed rid.
Share yourwebsite.com/meet with guests.
Anyone who knows the link can access the room.

Multiple rooms via URL parameters

Use rid as a variable tied to a query parameter.
Example: yourwebsite.com/meet?id=B31kdo3q
Security depends on rid uniqueness, unless you add access control.

Personal rooms

Assign each user a permanent rid tied to their account.
Example: rid=firstnamelastname → yourwebsite.com/meet/firstnamelastname.
Useful for 1-to-1 consultations, coaching, or customer success, where the same person always hosts in their own room.
Anyone who knows or guesses the personal room link can enter. For stronger protection, add authentication or access control on your site.

Password-protected rooms

Add your own login or password screen before loading the embed script.
Example flow: user logs in → system validates → page loads script with the correct rid.
Useful for internal meetings or protected sessions.

Calendar or booking integration

Generate rid from a calendar event or booking system.
Example: yourwebsite.com/meet?id=evt8837276.
Guests join the correct room automatically by following their meeting invite.

User-to-user private rooms

Build rid from two user IDs.
Example: rid=user123user987.
Great for marketplaces, customer support, or coaching platforms.

Transaction-based rooms

Create a room per order, case, or transaction.
Example: rid=order7789 or rid=case2025A45.
Works well for e-commerce, legal, or telehealth consultations.

Workshop or group sessions

One rid shared with many participants for smaller group calls or workshops.
Example: rid=workshop2025q4.

Temporary / expiring rooms

Generate a random rid valid only for a limited time.
Example: rid=tmp7a9f2d.
Ideal for ad-hoc or demo meetings.

Security and Best Practices

by.Video does not enforce access control by default. Security depends on how you generate and manage room IDs (rids), and whether you combine them with authentication in your own system.

To help protect your meetings:

Use random, unique IDs instead of predictable names.
Keep IDs between 8-16 characters to reduce the risk of guessing.
Avoid embedding personal information (e.g. names or emails) in the rid.
Consider expiring IDs or generating them per session to limit exposure.
Add authentication or role-based access control in your app if meetings must be private.

Branding

By default, embedded rooms display "Powered by.Video" in the footer. To remove branding, contact hello@by.video for pricing and for future early access to the billing interface.
