Obtaining the Dashboard Embed Code
Note:
You can use the Embed option to generate either an HTML snippet to create an inline frame (Iframe) that contains the embedded dashboard or to generate a URL you can use to embed the dashboard yourself. In the Embed dashboard dialog box, you can also configure some aspects of how the embedded dashboard will be rendered. These configuration options allow you to choose whether or not the dashboard will include the navigation panel, use a custom height, or apply designated filters to the dashboard content.
Note:To embed/view a dashboard into a different tool/environment, you must be logged in to Flexera One. Users who are not logged in to Flexera One are prompted to log in before the embedded dashboard will be rendered.

1. | Open the dashboard you want to embed. |
2. | Click the three dots icon ( |
3. | Click Embed. |
