Query on iFrame Sandbox Permissions for Custom Visuals in PowerBI ( "allow-scripts" permission)

jeromexshi — Sun, 02 Jun 2024 10:36:52 GMT

I am writing to seek clarification regarding the iFrame sandbox permissions for custom visuals in PowerBI. Specifically, since the sandbox only supports the "allow-scripts" permission, I am concerned about its impact on cross-domain requests.

Could this limitation be causing issues when attempting to pull origin information or resulting in null values when sending POST/OPTIONS requests to other domains? If so, what solutions are available to address this issue? Additionally, is it possible to loosen the restriction on sandbox permissions, or is there an alternative method to successfully pull origin information under the current constraints?

Hi @jeromexshi,

All you can do to get successful responses from an endpoint is if the Access-Control-Allow-Origin response header is configured as * or null (as custom visuals have a null origin due to the sandbox impositions). If you cannot work to these constraints, then there is currently no known workaround.

If these have been set, then HTTP(S) endpoints should be callable per usual JS fetch methods.

Regards,

Daniel
