Carousel Cloud gives you the ability to embed an Express Player directly onto your Website or in any application that supports HTML Snippets. This can be a very useful way to centralize information where people are already browsing around and allow Carousel users who are not necessarily web designers the ability to publish their content directly to websites.
Please note that Express players are an add on feature that may not be included with your subscription. Please contact your Customer Success Manager for more information.
