Example: Iframe Block and Who Owns What (whoownswhat.justfix.nyc)
An outside organization, JustFix.nyc, has compiled information about which landlords own which buildings in NYC, and other information about each address. The following webinar explains how to use the IFrame Block to embed that helpful information in LegalServer, and automatically use the case's address information to provide your users with enriched information.
You must have the GIS module installed and be using an address block that sets GIS encoding information when saved.
For the URL Template parameter, use: https://whoownswhat.justfix.nyc/bbl/{$module.nyc_bbl_text}/?utm_source=Your+Agency
