    Hi luojiandan_bi,

    Visuals have their domain removed by the main window so that they are sandboxed. One of the effects of this is that if you're attending to load data from an external URL and this site does not allow requests from an empty domain, they are blocked by your browser. This is a common use case for creators in the HTML Content visual, so I've written up a short overview here. This section and the one below it on CORS are worth understanding if you're developing visuals in Power BI - plus the linked articles that detail it further - as these cannot be overcome through conventional means.

    Regards,

    Daniel
