Embed vertical Sway into a blog

It would be awesome if I could write blog posts using the vertical scrolling sway and then sharing it on a blog platform.

Not as a smaller embedded iframe, but as a full size post, as we can see them on the sway website right now.

I created a small Sway to explain with a picture my idea:

Of course the end could automatically add a "created with Sway" or something to give appropriate credits to the app!

    This would be great. I'd also like to be able to embed in Wordpress. Is that option coming.

  • Courtney commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Yes! Please make it so we can use this for blogging. This would be a great platform to keep interest and move from article to article. I'm so excited about this.

    I really hope this can happen in the near future. It would be much easier to edit post with Sway. The embeded Sway presentation in blogs now doesn't even look like a blog post...even though they are much more animated. Most people might not even know how to navigate it when browsing the blog post. So, make it happen plz.

    Oh please, Sway team, make this happen! Writing on Sway makes things so much easier - I honestly eliminate writer's block and start generating content left to right with this tool. All I need now is to be able to upload it to my blog as a full blog post. Meaning, I'd write content on sway and with a click of a button it would be on my blog with the pictures, and backgrounds I set up on Sway. This would make life so much easier!

    Being able to embed this as the full article you see on Sway in WordPress would literally be the best thing ever, please make it happen Sway team.

    Added my votes to this as well. Sway could be the new (and improved) Live Writer. :-) I could really see how this would be a great way to compose blog posts.

    My goodness.

    I have over 2 million readers and I discovered SWAY today. I totally love it.

    And YES, emphatically, it would be wonderful to be able to work on a document in Sway and simply "slide" it in WordPress and the entire formatting, vertical, I would presume, would work all by magic.

    Trust me Microsoft, do this fast if you can. This will totally change the perception of people and Microsoft. For now, all is positive... but nothing of this magnitude. This will bring huge amounts of people to Sway... simply because Sway simplifies so many things. It is like working with a genius by your side... and I don't have to pay him/her/it (other that paying for Office and that is all good).

    Please, make this happen soon... "Sway today sliding into WordPress".

    I agree! I would LOVE to be able to do this! I'm currently opting for other presentation modes e.g. Google Slides, because I know that I can embed them in the class blog after a lesson. Being able to embed sway would mean that I would use it even more.

    After playing with Sway for a bit, I can really see this being an amazing way to create webpages. Perhaps if it was integrated with Sharepoint?

  • Alessandro Ribeiro commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Sway, we need to incorporate our post on wordpress (wordpress) service is very annoying with incorporation of external services, could help us with that? I have two blogs on the Wordpress platform and I can't use my posting of the sway.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    This is exactly the information I've been seeking on the SWAY support sights? Can I embed a SWAY directly into the Linkedin Publish page, for example, if my content is hosted on OneDrive?

    Will I be able to see analytics of viewers of my Sways?

    Can I use my own url to post SWAYs across all social platforms?
