Twitter Timeline in Web Content Widget

In the February BI Service update I noticed that there is now a web content widget that allows for embedding rich media content.  In the official blog post about the service update they showed how to embed a single Twitter feed. I would like to be able to embed a Twitter timeline or feed as opposed to just the single tweet. 

 

I've tried going to Twitter and generating a new widget and using the embed code provdied from that widget, however; the twitter feed never appears.  The widget just shows "Tweets by x".  

 

I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong to embed a Twitter timeline or if it's just not supported yet?

    This is crutial to sell Power BI to senior management. They want yammer feeds embedded into Power Bi because they saw a demo of DOMO that blew them away.

    C'mon Power BI team. You guys can do it !
  • Same problem. Same result.

    It looks easy but just doesn't seem to work.

    Would be one of those extra bits which gets a higher up interested...

      I agree.  I've worked on other projects where we've embedded twitter timelines, and it invariably always gets a lot of attention.  I really wish we could get this to work as embedding a single (static) tweet to an otherwise autonomous, real-time dashboard just seems counter intuitive.  

       

      Lets hope MS fixes this.
