Hi! So I was planning to add an external component to one of my projects in Ignition Perspective. I was wondering if is it possible to use these external components by using an HTML/embed code in an Inline Frame component instead of the website url? If not, are there any other ways to do this? I was not able to try this out yet since I have yet to buy a subscription for this external component and I would like to make it sure that I won't be wasting the subscription if this is not possible.

No, but you could write a Perspective module with the Ignition SDK.

Or possibly host the HTML in a WebDev endpoint and point your iframe at that endpoint. Technically you could also host it with some other local proxy/webserver (e.g. Traefik or nginx), and then put the Gateway behind that as well (using a 'reverse proxy').
That only applies if you've got actually self-hostable HTML, though, which seems counter to the idea of a time-limited trial; that trial likely relies on being hosted on whatever company's servers.
