Add `&embedded=true` to the URL. This option removes the options to open a different file. It is an option that was intended to be used when Topola Genealogy Viewer is in an iframe.
## Hosting a GEDCOM file
One of the common ways to host a GEDCOM file which can be used in Topola Genealogy Viewer is using [Google Drive](https://drive.google.com). Here are the steps you can follow:
1. Upload the GEDCOM file to Google Drive
2. Right-click the file in Google Drive and choose "Get link"
3. In the "General access" section change "Restricted" to "Anyone with the link" with "Viewer" permissions.
4. Click "Copy link" to get the link to the GEDCOM file.
5. Open [Topola Genealogy Viewer](https://pewu.github.io/topola-viewer).
6. Click "Open URL"
7. Paste the copied URL and click "Open"
8. Once the tree opens, copy the current URL.
You can now share the copied URL with someone.
Note that the URL you just copied is not discoverable. Only people who have the link will be able to see your data. It's similar to an "Unlisted" YouTube video – you can see it only if you know the link.
