When embedding in discourse I cant for the life of me get it to auto assign to a category.

Im using a vueJs APP which on each standard (subcategory in discourse) I want to display embedded discussion connected to these subcategories.

My embedded code is as follows:

> window.DiscourseEmbed = {  
> discourseUrl: ‘[https://forum.example.example.nz/](https://forum.example.example.nz/)’,  
> discourseEmbedUrl: ‘[https://example.example.example.nz/c/english-level-1/1-1-written-text-study/](https://example.example.example.nz/c/english-level-1/1-1-written-text-study/)’  
> // topicId: 273  
> };
> 
> ```
> (function () {
> const d = document.createElement('script'); d.type = 'text/javascript'; d.async = true;
> d.src = `${DiscourseEmbed.discourseUrl}javascripts/embed.js`;
> 
> (document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0] || document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0]).appendChild(d);
> }());
> 
> ```

Limitations:  
I understand that using this embedded feature will create a new topic  
I also cant add a category to the “window.DiscourseEmbed” object for auto assigning

But I would love to be able to have the embedded code create this new discussion in my  
(category) english level 1 → (subcategory) standard 1.1.

you can see here:

It has a link to the category I wish it to be in. But this topic is sitting in the very top level under _latest_ which is not ideal

I know you can use the host and I have tried to hack around with this:

Im not sure if im missing the point or if I am just straight up trying to use this embedded feature for a way more specific use case than what its designed for.

Any help would be appreciated thanks 🙂
