      How do I create an Embed sticky?

      Embed your favorite third-party apps inside of your Storm by using embed sticky notes.

      Use the new embed option in our file sticky tab to embed various different apps directly into your Storms, allowing you to reference other applications, data, projects, or anything else without the need to switch tabs or navigate between apps. 

      Available on Startup, Business, and Enterprise subscriptions.
