Hi there, I am embedding an MS Form in blackboard. The issue is that the actual form is not displayed, instead the following message is displayed, "Fill out the form" with a link to the form. This link then opens the form in a new window. I need the form embedded in the blackboard page, with no link, and no new window.
Any advice would be appreciated.
I'm not wild about replying to my own replies, but I think I've identified your problem now. When you're getting the embed code, make sure you change the highlighted setting below from "Only people…" to "Anyone…". The first setting will work if the user is already logged in with their Office 365 account, but otherwise gives the "error" you described originally.
Gary Smith As I know you've been testing on CourseSites recently I'll note that you can't embed in Original courses on CourseSites as the privilege Add/Edit trusted content with scripts is restricted on CourseSites. This isn't a limitation of Learn in SaaS or Learn with the Ultra navigation enabled to be clear, just a restriction for CourseSites.
You're probably already aware you can't use embed code in Ultra courses.
Thank you very much Gary, that solved the problem!

Out of curiosity, I gave this a try in a test community on our production server - and the embedding worked fine. While we went to SAAS last Christmas, we've not yet moved to anything Ultra. Apparently our current version is "Release 3700.3.0-rel.7+29b16e7". I'm wondering - are you able to embed other typical external content okay?
For comparison, here's what my embed code looks like, copied straight from the Forms site - yours should be pretty similar…
