How to embed portfolio planner reports in confluence?
Asked by Dean Peters-Wright:

I want to embed a portfolio planner report in confluence.

I have a number of project overviews in portfolio planner.

The report I use the most is the Schedule that shows the timelines of all the projects within a given programme.

I copy the Embed link and then paster this into a HTML block within confluence, but nothing gets displayed.

Amy I missing something here?

It seems that the embed function in portfolio planner and the HTML block in confluence should work together --- how can I embed and display a portfolio report in confluence?

You can find those reference links here:

body: Hey there, I have, that's exactly what I tried unfortunately (I said HTMK block, but I meant HTML Macro) --- it simply doesn't work --- nothing gets displayed.

author: Dean Peters-Wright
body: We use cloud for both confluence and JIRA --- Is that what you mean?


author: Minh Tran
body: Ohh i see [@Dean Peters-Wright](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1205782), HTML Macro is not allowed to use in Cloud due to security. Please refer here for further information <https://confluence.atlassian.com/confcloud/restricted-functions-in-confluence-cloud-734070955.html>

So i doubt we are able to do this on Confluence Cloud

Maybe the HTML Macro for Confluence Cloud is what you want? <https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/biz.artemissoftware.confluence.html.HtmlMacro/cloud/overview>

Let me know if that is what you are looking for. That add-on uses the Atlassian Connect framework to bring back a safer version of HTML Macro for Cloud.

body: Thats works. We'll probably have to get it, but would be good if Atlassian would provide a solution without having purchase this addon.

But thank you for your help.

body: im using sever for both jira and confluence, trying to do the same thing and not working. tried both macros. im just getting a blank box


author: Bianca Aye
body: Is there an answer on this? I am also getting the same white box error, when both my confluence / JIRA are on the same server.


author: M D
body: I am having the same problem. I believe it is due to recent security updates from Atlassian to their websites that affects how iframes are displayed.

I can embed Atlassians homepage and that displays fine so the embed iframe in HTML macro works. But when I try and embed Jira Portfolio using the link provided it shows a white box and nothing else. Therefore the error must be that Jira Portfolio now has features that prevent it being viewed when embedded.
