How do I use Embed Code in React with Hooks

I have the following embed code I need to integrate into my React app (using hooks):

<script 
class="123abc" 
type="text/javascript" 
src="https://cdn2.fake.com/Scripts/embed-button.min.js" 
data-encoded="lsakjdfioejfklsdKLJFLDSidjfklJSDJfLFKJEI88DdfDF8Ad9sa7">
</script>

How would I go about doing this? The resources I've found don't seem to allow me to implement the data-encoded part...

Based on Adding script tag to React/JSX you can see the answer has a useEffect & hooks solution, but I can't figure out how I would implement the data-encoded part (or the class part for that matter).

How about this:

componentDidMount () {
    const script = document.createElement("script");
    script.src = "https://cdn2.fake.com/Scripts/embed-button.min.js";
    script.async = true;

    document.body.appendChild(script);
}

For editing the documents head usually you use react-helmet.

Supports all valid head tags: title, base, meta, link, script, noscript, and style tags.

you can create a portal to add a script block instead of mutating the DOM directly from within your react script!
