Embedding part of Excel file from Onedrive in iframe stopped working
Hello,
For a while now I share different parts of an Excel on my OneDrive in different iframes.
That stopped working since last week, all different frames show the same: the Excel as a whole, with tabs
my iframe code is as follows:
https://onedrive.live.com/embed?resid=xxxxx&authkey=xxxxx&em=2&wdAllowInteractivity=False&Item=BL&wdHideGridlines=True&wdD
BL is a section (not sure of the english term) in one of the the sheets, but it just shows the whole workbook
The tabs are there, the gridlines, the downloadbutton. Did these functions to hide, disappear in a latest release?
MartijnStaphorsius I have a very similar problem and would be interested in a solution! I called MS support but they couldn't help me. After the problem as Martijn writes, I tried to generate the iframe code again, but the address in the code is no longer "onedrive.com" but "1drv.ms" and the link does generate, but I can't work with the file as if it was in read-only mode. For a few months everything worked without problems (excel where on my website it was possible to configure via menu the exact specification of the product), but since last week it is impossible to work with the table in the iframe. Anyone have any idea where the problem might be?
StefanMikus MartijnStaphorsius I am experiencing the same problem. I have sent multiple complaints through the
feedback icon at the lower part of my embedded spreadsheet, but no response so far. I would recommend that you do the same thing - maybe after a certain threshold of complaint they will pay attention to the bug.
MartijnStaphorsius I am experiencing the same problem. We have used the embed feature for years now and never had any issues with the Iframe code until this week. I thought it might be our web hosting company, but now that I have been researching a bit more, it looks like this is a Microsoft issue. I hope Microsoft will see this and help figure out why this is happening.
my iframe code is
<iframe width="539" height="400" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" src="https://1drv.ms/x/c/620a8836ceeb2de4/IQPkLevONogKIIBiGQMAAAAAAWKDiIVJrror8t0pwroEYVE?wdAllowInteractivity=False&AllowTyping=True&ActiveCell='Rate%20Calculator%20Design%205'!H7&wdHideGridlines=True&wdHideHeaders=True&wdDownloadButton=True&wdInConfigurator=True&wdInConfigurator=True"></iframe>
I have had my interactive Excel spreadsheet iframe for OneDrive embedded on my website for years and for some unknown reason, in April of 2024 or May of 2024, it stopped showing on my website. I see recently that others have been having this same problem. So when is this going to be fixed so that my website works like it always has. This is a problem with OneDrive and not my website platform. Please solve this problem for all of us. Thank you.

I've reported it in as many ways to Microsoft as I can find. No responses yet. I eventually switched to the R shiny framework. Easy to master. Chatgpt can help in creating an app like this.
