This guide discusses how to embed ProcessMaker's actionable forms or intermediate web entry forms into third-party web applications.

Step 2: Embed the Intermediate Web Entry Link into Your Web Application

Identify the appropriate location within your Web application to embed the intermediate Web entry link. This could be a specific page, a modal window, or any other suitable area. Insert the provided web entry link, including the iFrame, into the desired location in your HTML file.

Let's embed the intermediate web entry link into the iFrame, use the following sample HTML code:

<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
  <title>ERP Website</title>
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/icon?family=Material+Icons">

      color: #fff;
      padding: 10px;
      text-align: center;
    }

    .container {
      display: flex;
      max-width: 1200px;
      margin: 0 auto;
    }

    .sidebar {
