Sisense Notebooks can be quickly and easily embedded in your web application using an iFrame element.

## Authentication

Embedded Notebooks require SSO authentication, usually using the existing corporate SSO authentication. To learn more about configuring SSO, see [Single Sign-On (SSO)](https://docs.sisense.com/main/SisenseLinux/using-single-sign-on-to-access-sisense.md).

## How to Embed a Notebook

To implement this feature you must identify:

- The URL of the Notebook you are planning to embed. (See below, [Get the Notebook URL for Embedding](#Get).)
- Which URL embedding parameters you want to use. (See below, [Parameters for Notebook Embedding](#Paramete).)

Once you have this information, include it in the `src` attribute of an iFrame element and add the iFrame to your webpage.

Example:

```
<iframe
```

```
  id="ifram_id"
```

```
  name="ifram_name"
```

```
  width="100%"
```

```
  height="100%"
```

```
  frameborder="0"
```

```
src="https://notebooks.yourcompany.com/app/notebooks/<notebook ID>?embed=true&edit=true&l=true&h=false&r=true&t=true"
```

```
  scrolling="auto"
```

```
></iframe>
```

### Get the Notebook URL for Embedding

Open your Notebook and copy the URL of the Notebook, up to and including the Notebook ID.

For example, for this Notebook URL:

`http://notebooks.yourcompany.com/app/notebooks/6400706dbbe5400011591272/create`

You only need this part:

`http://notebooks.yourcompany.com/app/notebooks/6400706dbbe5400011591272`

Once you have the URL, you can add the desired URL parameters at the end.

For example, to embed a Notebook so that it can be edited, you must add these parameters:

`?embed=true&edit=true`

Another approach is to add all of the available URL parameters, and then set them to true or false, depending on whether or not you need them:

`http://notebooks.yourcompany.com/app/notebooks/6400706dbbe5400011591272?embed=true&edit=true&l=true&h=false&r=true&t=true`

### Parameters for Notebook Embedding

The following parameters are supported when embedding Notebooks via an iFrame:

| Name | Type | Required |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `embed` | Boolean | Yes | Displays the Notebook in embedded mode. |
| `edit` | Boolean | No | Enables data designers to edit the Notebook. (The toolbar option, `t`, must be enabled as well.) |
| `h` | Boolean | No | Show/hide the environment header. |
| `t` | Boolean | No | Show/hide the Notebook toolbar. |
| `l` | Boolean | No | Show/hide the navigation panel to the left. |
| `r` | Boolean | No | Show/hide the filter panel to the right. |
