Unsafe embeds
Unknown scripts inside the portal.

The problem
Why “just iframe it” becomes a security mess
Teams paste random URLs into the portal; students see broken frames or unsafe third parties.

Tools open five new tabs.
No governance
Nobody knows which embeds are official.
Role leaks
Staff tools visible to students.

FAQ
Questions teams ask before buying
Straight answers for setup, integrations, and day-two operations.
Can any URL be embedded?
No — only allow-listed origins approved by IT.
Does this replace Zoom/Meet integrations?
No. Native LMS/Meet connectors remain preferred for live classes; App Frame is for approved utilities.
Are embeds mobile friendly?
Responsive slots help; tool responsiveness still depends on the third party.
Can we deep-link with SSO?
When the tool supports SSO (e.g. Google), pair with Google SSO for smoother access.
