How to install shared components

NOTE

Currently, we are actively building and perfecting the Shared Components Hub, of which the installer is a part. The hub is an invite-only tool in alpha phase.

Please send us an email if you'd like to learn more about the tool and the Shared Components Hub.

How-to guide

Find and install a shared component

Follow these steps to find a shared component in the Shared Components Hub and install it for your Campaign Template page:

  1. Visit the Campaign Template Community Hub and select Shared Components.
  2. The list of available shared components will appear. Each item shows a thumbnail screenshot of what the component looks like, the name of the component, and a brief description of what it does.

    In this example, there is only one choice: Timeline. Click it.
  3. The detail page of the component will appear. If it's the one you want to use, click Install under the Action list, as indicated in the screenshot.
  4. A popup will appear, asking for two pieces of information: the site name in the WCMS and the site manager's API Key. Enter those pieces of information and click the Install button.
  5. You will be redirected to the result of the installation.
  6. To use the component, click the the link for the Block asset and visit our document on how to use a Shared Component for further instructions.
