Add the JavaScript tag to your site

After you create your recorder you need to add the api code to any page on your site where you want to allow screencasts to be recorded from.

You can get the code by clicking on the embed link next to your recorder

Clicking on the embed link will show you your recorder's Javascript code. Copy this on to your page.
