You can integrate Qlik Sense visualizations or sheets into an iframe element on a web page with the Single Integration API. This could for example be a web page on your intranet. You select which visualization or sheet to embed, and make some settings to customize selections, interaction and appearance. Then you can copy the iframe code containing the URL of the object and add it to your web page.
For more information about using single integration in web pages, see Single integration .

- Access to any bookmark used for selection. Private bookmarks will be applied for you, but not for anyone else.
- Same access to the data used in the selection as you, if section access is used to restrict data access.

The URL is limited to 2083 characters due to browser limitations. If your URL is too long, this is most likely due to a large number of individual selections.
