Issues using Embedder in a lock-down CMS like SharePoint or TDX
Hi Dropbox devs! I am trying to embed some Dropbox files into a knowledge article in TeamDynamix (TDX). I followed the Embedder API docs and I am able to embed files in a test web server, but not...

Thanks for the feedback! Dropbox doesn't offer an option or alternative like this, such as using just an iframe directly, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.

Thanks Greg! I also submitted this as an idea here: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-ideas/Provide-iframe-embed-code-in-Share-menu/idi-p/725448
I was poking around the Embedder script and noticed that it essentially just generates the iframe code for you. I tried copying the iframe code shown by the browser (View source), and although it rendered the div, the actual iframe didn't load. Are there security restrictions that prevent this from happening, or does the file URL have to be formatted a certain way (besides URL encoding)? Just wondering if I can make it work by creating the iframe code manually, something like:
<div class="dropbox-embed-container" style="height: 100%; width: 100%;">
<iframe src="https://www.dropbox.com/dropins/embed?app_key=***APP_KEY_HERE***&iframe=true&origin=***REFERRER_SCHEME_AND_DOMAIN_URL_ENCODED***&link=***LINK_TO_FILE_URL_ENCODED***" scrolling="no" style="height: 100%; width: 100%; border: 1;" />
</div>
Thanks!
Gabriel.

Unfortunately I don't have any specific guidance to offer for if/how it might be possible to build that directly, as that is not officially documented or supported. (And the details normally handled automatically by the script may be subject to change without notice.)
