Embed the Growl SDK in your app or website

Embedding Growl SDK in your website is a simple process. All you need to do is add a small snippet of code to your website’s HTML.

Add Growl script

Get your script tag

The script tag is what loads Growl on your site. Here is a template of what it looks like:
```
<script
  src="https://cdn.withgrowl.com/sdk.js"
  data-growl-publisher-id="YOUR_PUBLISHER_ID"
></script>
```
Replace YOUR_PUBLISHER_ID with your actual publisher ID. \

Advanced: You can optionally route Growl events through your own domain using a CNAME record. This can help with tracking blockers and improve event delivery. Read custom domain setup to learn more.
Find Your Publisher ID

You can find your unique Publisher ID in the Growl Dashboard.
Add the script to your website

Once you have your script tag with your Publisher ID, add it to your website’s HTML file.

The best place to put the script is right before the closing </head> tag of your HTML document. This is done to prevent content layout shifts on script load since the Growl script loads before your <body> tag.

Here is an example of what your HTML file might look like after adding the script:
```
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>My Awesome Website</title>
     <script
      src="https://cdn.withgrowl.com/sdk.js"
      data-growl-publisher-id="YOUR_PUBLISHER_ID"
    ></script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1>Welcome to my website!</h1>
    <p>Here is my content.</p>

    

  </body>
</html>
```
You can add the optional attribute data-growl-debug to the <script> tag to see Growl debug messages in console. We only recommend this in dev environments.
Verify Your Installation

After adding the script to your website:
1. Save the changes to your HTML file.
2. Upload the updated file to your web server if needed.
3. Open your website in a web browser.
You should now see the Growl script sdk.js load in your browser’s network tab.

That’s it! Your Growl SDK is now embedded. Growl now captures all behavioral user data, but still needs to capture chat data. Follow this guide to send chat data to Growl.
