Embed a report on other sites

Valerio Lupo

Hello,

we are trying to configure OpenID authentication in order to embed a Board report into an external application, following the guidance provided in this community post:

https://community.board.com/discussion/15071/howto-embed-a-report-on-other-sites

In our web.config, we have correctly added:

xmlCopiaModifica<openIDconfigurations configSource="App_Data\config\openID.config" />

We also created a proper openID.config file in the indicated folder, with a valid client configuration (client_id, redirect_uri, scopes, CORS settings, etc.).
However, Board seems to completely ignore the file. Even if we deliberately insert invalid XML into openID.config, the application starts without any error or effect — which strongly suggests the file is not being read at all.

Can you please clarify:

1. Is the openID.config mechanism still supported in recent versions of Board?
2. Where exactly should OpenID client configurations be defined for external apps using AuthenticateBoard(...)?
3. Are client registrations managed through a different system (e.g., database or JSON-based configuration)?
4. Are there predefined clients we can use for testing (e.g., boardWebClient or similar)?

Thanks in advance for your help.
We’ve followed all available documentation, but we’re stuck at the authentication phase due to this issue.
