    Embed Reports® Using External SSO Authentication

    Bold Reports® supports embedding reports into other web applications using external Single Sign-On (SSO) authentication with iframe-based embedding. The Bold Reports® application can be configured to support authentication through Windows Active Directory, Azure Active Directory, OAuth 2.0, and OpenID Connect. Follow the steps below to obtain the embed code using the appropriate authentication provider.

    • In the Embed Code dialog box, enable SSO and select the authentication provider, as shown in the image below. Enable SSO Option

    • Copy the embed URL by clicking the copy icon in the Embed Code dialog box, and paste it into your web application. Copy URL

    • To use the web application, run it and sign in with your credentials. Once signed in, the report will automatically display based on the permissions assigned to your account. Sign In With Microsoft View Embed Report

    Public embedding

    If you want to embed the report without user authentication, make the report public and embed it. The public report will be rendered automatically without requiring credentials. Note that you cannot enable the comments panel for public report embedding.

    Embedding the public report will not work when the public report setting is disabled. Learn more about the report settings in the Report Settings Guide.

    Private embedding

    Private reports can be embedded and are accessible to users in Bold Reports® who have read permission. These users will be required to log in to the Bold Reports® server before the report is rendered. Thus, the embedded report will show the login page whenever private reports are embedded and the user is not yet authenticated.

    By default, report access mode is set to private until it is changed to public by the owner of the report.
