You can customize the viewer by using query parameters or an API. This gives you a larger range of configuration options for multiple 360 views. For example, if you wanted to have a 360 view on two different pages, they would have the same settings (Auto Spin, Zoom, etc.) by default. Now, you can use either of the two methods below to make each view behave independently.
Adding a small snippet into the Javascript, or Using URL Query Parameters (see below)
How to use URL query parameters
Step 1: Select the configurations that you would like to change
Step 2: Add the method name and argument to the end of the embed URL code in the form of http://embed.imajize.com/[UUID]?[method_name]=[argument]
To add more than one customization, separate them with a ‘&’. For example, http://embed.imajize.com/[UUID]?[method_name]=[argument]&[method_name]&[argument]
Step 3: Run the page and see the new settings of the 360 viewer
Don’t forget to replace [UUID], [method_name], and [argument] with your own values.
