Auto sign in click on "Sign-in" if button appears in embedded report

Hello,

i embedded a iFrame of an report into a webpage. This report will be displayed as a standalone report for my colleagues and runs all the time on a display. I wrote a script part which tells the Iframe to refresh every 10 minutes. 

But seemingly still after a while the session gets a inherent system or session timeout. So the typical yellow "Sign - In Button" will emerge:

If I click on it, it shows that I'm actually not logged out, because it won't ask me for authentification again, instead it will just run the iFrame with the report right away. So since I don't need to re-enter my login data is there a way to write a short java script which just click on that yellow button automatically and re-run the report? Since the Sign'in button has its own class id, I hope its possible. 

 

Thank you very much in advance. 

Best.

@v-chenwuz-msft thanks for your tip. I come to realization that its not possible to click on a button within a iframe from the "outside". Which means that the domain are different.

Hi @Applicable88,

 

Maybe you can try this code in a loop while the sign-in page is occurred to click the yellow button.

function click_yellow() { document.querySelector("#promptForLogin > button").click() }
click_yellow()

 

Best Regards
