Embedded Fields | Yext Hitchhikers Platform

What You’ll Learn

  • Where to use them in Yext

Overview

Embedded field example

In this unit, you’ll learn how embedded fields work and where you can use them in Yext.

How Embedded Fields Work

Any text field in Yext can accept embedded fields. This includes:

Embedded fields are dynamic content. This means that if you embed a field value, and then update that field, it will also update anywhere it has been embedded.

Apply an Embedded Field

You can apply an embedded field anywhere you see the embedded field icon:
