# Embedded Blocks

{% hint style="success" %}
**Audience:** Developers & Solution Architects

**Purpose:** Explains how Embedded Blocks work in <code class="expression">space.vars.Kizen\_company\_name</code> plugins and how they can be used to add custom content and actions to pages.
{% endhint %}

## Overview

Custom content can be embedded on homepages and record detail pages to augment <code class="expression">space.vars.Kizen\_company\_name</code>'s functionality.

On a homepage, custom content blocks can be created to show additional information and UI.

On detail pages, custom actions can be configured with actions such as logging an activity or starting an <code class="expression">space.vars.automation</code>. Additionally, an action can call a plugin script written in Javascript. The script is called with the context of the current record, and can perform data mutations, showing the changes in <code class="expression">space.vars.Kizen\_company\_name</code> in real-time.

Additionally, on detail pages a Javascript plugin script can be run on page navigation to fetch and merge external data on-demand.
