Hi Sudha99 ,

Normally you can put pages from the same SharePoint domain into an Iframe and this works. But if that page comes from a different domain then you run into problems

So given the case that your page is

https://<tenant>.sharepoint.com/sites/<yoursite>/SitePages/MyPage.aspx


Is the page you reference in the Iframe also from

https://<tenant>.sharepoint.com

? Or is it from somemthing like this

https://<tenant>-my.sharepoint.com


Also:
Is the page in the Iframe also a site page or is it a system page?

Best Regards,
Sven

    Hello SvenSieverding 

    thanks for your response 🙂

     

    The page where I am calling the site page is a different domain altogether.  www.<domainname>.com

     

    and the site page that I am calling with an iframe of the above domain page is similar to your first url - https://<domain>.sharepoint.com/sites/<sitesection>/SitePages/<pagename>.aspx

      Sudha99 You have to add the external website domains in the SharePoint site settings > HTML Field Security settings while using the external website URLs in iframe inside the SharePoint site pages.

       

      Follow steps given here to add external domain to the HTML field security settings: Allow or restrict the ability to embed content on SharePoint pages
