You can embed Sisense dashboards and widgets in non-Sisense environments, such as in your own websites or applications.
Embedding Dashboards
To embed a dashboard, add “?embed=true” to the url of the dashboard, and refresh the page. If you dashboard is within a folder, then first delete “?folder=” and everything that follows, before adding “?embed=true”.
This will open the dashboard without the surrounding Sisense environment.
For example:
Dashboard URL:
http://mysite.com/app/main#/dashboards/536f2b70d093e26c280000d5
Embedded URL:
http://mysite.com/app/main#/dashboards/536f2b70d093e26c280000d5?embed=true
Dashboard URL for dashboard within folder:
http://mysite.com/app/main#/dashboards/536f2b70d093e26c280000d5?folder=54bce25f1dc61a1804000109
Embedded URL for dashboard within folder:
http://mysite.com/app/main#/dashboards/536f2b70d093e26c280000d5?embed=true
You can use this URL to embed the dashboard in an iFrame, for example:
<iframe id=”ifm” name=”ifm” width=”100%” height=”100%” frameborder=”0″ src=“http://mysite.com/app/main#/dashboards/536f2b70d093e26c280000d5?embed=true″ scrolling=”auto”></iframe>Dashboard Embedding Configuration Options
You can control which portions of the Sisense environment are available when embedding by concatenating the following parameters to the embedding url:
Show/Hide the left navigation panel
Parameter: “l” (left)
Default: false
Example: ?embed=true&l=true
Show/Hide the right filter panel
Parameter: “r” (right)
Default: true
Example: ?embed=true&r=false
Show/Hide the toolbar
Parameter: “t” (toolbar)
Default: false
Example: ?embed=true&t=true
Show/Hide the environment header
Parameter: “h” (header)
Default: false
Example: ?embed=true&h=true
Embedding Widgets
To embed a single widget, add “?embed=true” to the url of the widget when it edit mode.
This will open the widget without the surrounding Sisense environment.
For example:

You can use this URL to embed the widget in and iFrame, for example:
<iframe id=”ifm” name=”ifm” width=”100%” height=”100%” frameborder=”0″ src=“http://mysite.com/app/main#/dashboards/536f3a54d093e26c28000114/widgets/536f3a54d093e26c2800011b?embed=true″ scrolling=”auto”></iframe>Widget Embedding Configuration Options
You can control which portions of the Sisense environment are available when embedding by concatenating the following parameters to the embedding url:

Authentication in Embedded Dashboards and Widgets
All Sisense dashboards and widgets require authentication. When embedding dashboards and Widgets outside of the Sisense environment, usually the use case is to not enforce the Sisense environment authentication, but rather use Single Sign On with existing corporate authentication.
