HMTL content not loading

[WJ876400]

Hi,

I am using the HML content visual and have created the Iframe but when I load it i get the below saying the website refused to connect.

would this be my company firewall blocking it or am i doing something wrong with the measure -

 "<iframe src=" & Websites[URL] & " style='position: fixed; width: 100%; height: 100%'></iframe>"

any help is appreciated, thanks

Hi @WJ876400 

The issue you’re encountering with the iframe refusing to connect in Power BI could be due to several reasons. Here are some common causes and solutions:

Possible Causes and Solutions

1. Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) Issues:

   • The website you are trying to embed might have CORS policies that prevent it from being displayed in an iframe on a different domain.
   • Solution: Ensure the website allows embedding by checking its CORS settings. You might need to contact the website administrator to enable this.

2. X-Frame-Options Header:

   • The website might have an X-Frame-Options header set to DENY or SAMEORIGIN, which prevents it from being embedded in an iframe.
   • Solution: Again, you would need to contact the website administrator to change this setting to allow embedding.

3. Firewall or Network Restrictions:

   • Your company’s firewall or network security settings might be blocking the connection.
   • Solution: Check with your IT department to see if there are any firewall rules or network policies that might be blocking the connection.

4. Incorrect URL or Syntax:

   • There might be an issue with the URL or the syntax of your iframe code.
   • Solution: Double-check the URL and ensure it is correct. Also, verify that the syntax of your iframe code is correct.
