Hello friends, today we will discuss Use IFrame in LWC component in Salesforce. We use an iframe to load other website pages. Like if you want to show third-party page eg. google.com then you just need to put this URL link in iframe src. We can give height and width in the iframe. We also use event listeners like onload for the call LWC js method.

Also check this: Test Data Factory in Apex Salesforce

Key Highlights :

  1. We use the iframe to display visualforce page where we can send parameters in URL and the page load accordingly.
  2. We also use iframe for generating pdf.
  3. Load third-party web page
  4. we need to put a third-party URL in CSP security so the page can load in Salesforce.

Code :

First, we will store our website link in CSP Trusted Sites.

lWCIFrame.HTML :

<template>
  <iframe
    src={url}
    height={height}
    width={width}
    referrerpolicy={referrerPolicy}
    sandbox={sandbox}
    title="techdicer"
  ></iframe>
</template>

lWCIFrame.JS :

import { LightningElement, track } from 'lwc';
export default class LWCIFrame extends LightningElement {
    @track height = '900px';
    @track referrerPolicy = 'no-referrer';
    @track sandbox = '';
    @track url = 'https://techdicer.com/';
    @track width = '100%';
}

lWCIFrame.js-meta.xml :

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<LightningComponentBundle xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata">
	<apiVersion>54.0</apiVersion>
	<isExposed>true</isExposed>
	<targets>
		<target>lightning__HomePage</target>
	</targets>
</LightningComponentBundle>

Output :

It fails with this error with google.com in the console.

Refused to display ‘https://www.google.com/’ in a frame because it set ‘X-Frame-Options’ to ‘sameorigin’

Hello RIJWAN!

Thanks for this article, but do you have any other article talking about generating PDF with Iframe on LWC?

Thanks!

Just do one thing here , In VF page put renderas=”pdf” in VF page header it will automatically change to PDF.

Hello Rijwan,
I have created the above LWC component and added it to the experience cloud, but I passed the Google form in the URL. LWC component shows Google form with an error – “JavaScript isn’t enabled in your browser, so this file can’t be opened. Enable and reload.” I am unable to fill the form. I have also enabled JavaScript in the Chrome browser but the same error is showing, Can you help me to resolve this issue?
Thanks!

You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find
this topic to be really something that I think I would never understand.

It seems too complex and very broad for me.
I am looking forward for your next post, I’ll try to get
the hang of it!

Dear Rijwan,

I tried to replace the URL with a SF report URL. But the screen seems to be blank.
Any idea, if reports are supported to use in iframe?

I have also tried to use the below code,

This code is loading the report in new browser tab instead of the frame.

Thank you!
