Embed Grafana iframe

[vschinazi]

Hi Chris

I'm trying to change the security settings in Grafana so I can embed my dashboard as an iframe in my website. I was able to locate and edit the grafana.ini file in the etc/grafana folder but it seems to revert back to default after I change it. Is this the correct file to be editing or is there another "default.ini" file?

Specifically (see attached) I would like to change the security settings:

allow_embedding | false
cookie_samesite | lax

to

allow_embedding | true
cookie_samesite | none

Can you please let me know how to do this or if there is another way to embed the dashboard into a website.

Thank you,

Victor

@vschinazi I think you should be able to do this via environment variables in docker-compose.yml. They follow a convention so it could be GF_SECURITY_ALLOW_EMBEDDING=true and GF_SECURITY_COOKIE_SAMESITE=none. I've not tested these specific ones but you'll see in the compose file there are already some others set.

See here for more info: https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/administration/configuration/#configure-with-environment-variables

Let us know if it works!
