The command can be executed using the {@link module:core/editor/editor~Editor#execute `editor.execute()`} method: ```js editor.execute( 'htmlEmbed', { html: 'HTML to insert.' } ); ``` We recommend using the official {@link framework/guides/development-tools#ckeditor-5-inspector CKEditor 5 inspector} for development and debugging. It will give you tons of useful information about the state of the editor such as internal data structures, selection, commands, and many more. ## Contribute The source code of the feature is available on GitHub in https://github.com/ckeditor/ckeditor5/tree/master/packages/ckeditor5-html-embed.
