Proporcionamos opciones para que incorpores contenido de Looker en tu aplicación host mediante iframes. Cada opción difiere en la forma en que administras y con la que interactúas con tu iframe, y autorizas o autenticas a tu usuario. Si no sabes con qué opción comenzar, consulta la ruta de aprendizaje sugerida que se encuentra al final de esta página.
Puedes usar window.postMessage() para interactuar con tu iframe.
Generas una URL de src de iframe única para cada sesión del usuario incorporada. Esta URL de un solo uso crea un nuevo usuario incorporado de Looker o actualiza uno existente.
Debes autenticar o autorizar al usuario fuera de Looker, por ejemplo, a través del proveedor de identidad de tu aplicación host con una incorporación firmada.
Incorporación firmada con el SDK de incorporación (recomendado)
Usas la conveniente API de JavaScript del SDK de incorporación para administrar y interactuar con tu iframe.
Generas una URL única para cada sesión del usuario incorporada. Esta URL de un solo uso crea un nuevo usuario incorporado de Looker o actualiza uno existente. El SDK de incorporación ayuda a automatizar parte de la generación de URLs.
Debes autenticar o autorizar al usuario fuera de Looker, por ejemplo, a través del proveedor de identidad de tu aplicación host con una incorporación firmada.

Check out the MDN web documentation on [iframes](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/iframe) and [postmessaging](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/postMessage) to familiarize yourself with these concepts.\n\nWe provide options for you to embed Looker content in your host application using iframes. Each option differs in how you manage and interact with your iframe and authorize or authenticate your user. If you are not sure which option to start with, check out the [suggested learning path](#suggested_learning_path) at the end of this page.\n\nYour iframe embedding options\n-----------------------------\n\nEvery option supports theming and can embed [dashboards](/looker/docs/creating-user-defined-dashboards), [LookML dashboards](/looker/docs/building-lookml-dashboards), [Explores](/looker/docs/creating-and-editing-explores), [Looks](/looker/docs/saving-and-editing-looks), query visualizations, and [extensions](/looker/docs/extension-overview).\n\n### Private embedding\n\n- You manage your iframe directly.\n- You may use window.postMessage() to interact with your iframe.\n- Your user must authenticate or authorize with Looker directly or with Looker using signed embedding with an identity provider.\n\n[Get started with private embedding](/looker/docs/gs-private-embedding)\n\n### Signed embedding\n\n- You manage your iframe directly.\n- You may use window.postMessage() to interact with your iframe.\n- You generate a unique iframe src url for every embed user session. This one-time-use URL creates a new Looker embed user or updates an existing one.\n- You must authenticate or authorize the user outside of Looker, for example, through your host application's identity provider using signed embedding.\n\n[Get started with signed embedding](/looker/docs/single-sign-on-embedding)\n\n### Signed embedding with Embed SDK (Recommended)\n\n- You use the Embed SDK's convenient Javascript API to **manage** and **interact** with your iframe.\n- You generate a unique URL for every embed user session. This one-time-use URL creates a new Looker embed user or updates an existing one. The Embed SDK helps automate part of the URL generation.\n- You must authenticate or authorize the user outside of Looker, for example, through your host application's identity provider using signed embedding.\n\n[Get started with signed embedding with the Embed SDK](/looker/docs/embed-sdk-intro)\n\nSuggested learning path\n-----------------------\n\nWe suggest you get started in this order:\n\n[1. Get started with private embedding](/looker/docs/gs-private-embedding)\n\nPrivate embedding will provide a basic understanding of Looker embedding.\n\n[2. Get started with signed embedding with Embed SDK](https://github.com/looker-open-source/embed-sdk#readme)\n\nSigned Embedding and the Embed SDK are more advanced concepts."]]
