I\u2019ve been using Hygraph CMS for a while and have built several content-rich websites and apps on it. It\u2019s an API-first headless CMS that allows you to manage content across platforms.<\/p>\n

The good thing is that it supports many API integrations, which makes content management seamless. And that also makes embedding popups way easier.<\/p>\n

So, you may ask –\u00a0\u201cCan I create Hygraph CMS popups?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The answer is yes, but with a small caveat<\/strong>\u2014you\u2019ll need the help of a third-party popup tool. In fact, I was experimenting with one such platform and pretty much liked what I created.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s check the steps now.<\/p>\n

Step 1: Sign Up for Picreel<\/strong><\/p>\n

First things first, you’ll need to\u00a0create a Picreel account. Head over to their website and sign up. They offer a\u00a0free trial, so you can test it out before committing.<\/p>\n
