Embed Web Object Without Pop Out Window

Dec 18, 2020

I am attempting to embed a web object into Storyline but it seems my only option is to open into a new window. What changes would the website developer need to make in order to allow Storyline to embed the object directly into the SCORM object? Thank you for your help in advance. Refused to Connect

Some sites can't be embedded because they will refuse to be in an iframe. Google, for example, won't let you embed it. It is a setting in the site itself, you can't do much about it.

For everyone's future reference, our web developer responded with this to me: Unfortunately we explicitly block iframe embedding for security reasons. For sites that prompt for user/password info, iframe embedding can be a security risk because the containing site can overlay user/password fields to try and capture/steal user credentials.
