About the Embedded Webpage widget

Important New setup of this feature is supported only in the latest UI. If you already have the Embedded Webpage widget downloaded in the classic UI, you can continue to use it.

If you are an administrator, you can use the Embedded Webpage widget to embed a webpage on a dashboard by using an iframe.

Important Whether or not a third-party webpage can be embedded is determined by the security settings of the third party.

Note If you are using the Embedded Webpage widget in a dashboard to show asset views, you can't add more than one view of the same page to the dashboard. For example, you can't add two different views of a Global View to the same dashboard.

Run in sandbox	Important This option is selected by default. Although optional, it does add an extra layer of security. Running the webpage in the sandbox mode ensures the following: Access to your local files and computer system are blocked. Form submissions are blocked. Scripts cannot run. APIs are disabled. Links cannot target other browsing contexts. Plugins (like `<embed>`, `<object>`, or `<applet>`) are not allowed. The content cannot navigate to the top-level browsing context, or the primary browser window or tab. Automatically triggered features, like videos or form controls, are blocked.
Trust this iFrame source	If you're a custom dashboard developer, use this option to pass the CSRF token as a parameter in the URI when using custom HTML.
