Introduction

Embedded learning building blocks allow you to start single widgets presenting the content of your Docebo platform as part of the layout composition of any external web page, as long as you have access to its HTML and JavaScript code.

Building blocks has the advantage of modular training by using widgets that can be seamlessly injected into your HTML code using a low-code approach to guide behavior. This is coupled with the provisioning of the content, either using simple JavaScript commands or a small set of HTML tag attributes, by following the generic visibility policy rules set on the platform. The integrator building the web page will be able to create the best on-the-fly learning experience for the user based on vertical training needs by customizing the widget behavior without passing through the embedded learning configurator page of the Docebo platform.

As with the embedded learning launcher, the user who accesses the external web page must be authenticated by the Docebo platform before seeing any content on the page. Once the connection is established by granting the proper working session on the browser, the final user can be automatically provisioned with the training so that their learning flow is not interrupted, even by the need to log in.

For information about integrating and using building blocks, please see Embedded learning building blocks.

The purpose of this article is to provide you with a release and version history of Building Blocks, allowing you to make sure that you are using the most appropriate kernel for integrating into your web page.

Activating embedded learning

To activate embedded learning, reach out to Docebo via the Help Center, or by contacting your Account Manager (if your plan includes this option).

Version history

In this section you will find the features found in each released version of the building blocks kernel, ordered from most recent release to oldest.

Please note that the most current version of the building blocks kernel will always be available by following the hereby stated process. If you use the returned link from the steps in the Retrieving the latest kernel chapter to embed the kernel in your site, you will always be operating at the most recent version.

Retrieving the latest kernel

To get the latest SDK Kernel URL you need to perform an API call to GET /setup/v1/flow/settings. For information on obtaining a bearer token, please see the article on APIs Authentication.

Here is an example of how to call it using cURL via the command line:

curl -X GET https://<yoursubdomain.docebosaas.com>/setup/v1/flow/settings \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer <your bearer token obtained previously>'

This is an example of a JSON response from that API call. The Building Blocks kernel URL can be found in the value of sdk_kernel_url.

{
  "data":{
    "kernel_url":"https://cdn1.dcbstatic.com/flow/kernels/Kernel-latest.bundle.min.js",
    "sdk_kernel_url":"https://cdn1.dcbstatic.com/flow/kernels/SDKKernel-v1-latest.bundle.js"
  },
  "version":"1.1.0",
  "_links":[]
}

For more information about API calls, please see Introduction to Docebo APIs.
