Embedding Sisense Dashboards
Book a live demo
You can use three Sisense embedding methods to embed full Sisense dashboards into your web application:
- Basic embedding with iFrame
- Embed SDK for more advanced use-cases
- Compose SDK for API-first embedding (no iFrames) into React, Angular and Vue applications
Depending on your choice of embedding method, you can create different levels of interactivity for your users.
See Dashboards feature documentation for more information about Sisense Dashboards.
Choosing the right approach
Not sure whether to use iFrame, Embed SDK or Compose SDK? No problem! Refer to the table below for a quick comparison:
| Method | iFrame | Embed SDK | Compose SDK |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best for | Simplest, fast no-code dashboard embedding | Dashboard embedding with low-code JavaScript APIs for control and interaction | Embedding dashboards, widgets, and gen-AI quickly with low-code, to building fully customized analytics experiences with pro-code |
| Language / Framework | HTML | JavaScript | React, Angular, Vue |
| Time to Deploy | Very fast | Fast | Fast |
| Flexibility | Limited | Medium | Very high |
| Embeddable Components |

Things to keep in mind
When embedding Sisense dashboards in your application, your application will need secure and authenticated access to remote resources on the Sisense server such as APIs and files. Depending on your situation, you may need to consider:
- Authentication & SSO
- Various browser-server security features such as CORS and CSRF
- Ensuring your application client has HTTP access to your Sisense instance
Please refer to the Access & Security section for more information.
