Passing data to an IFrame

That seems bad for starters. That means that anyone else using the application will be sharing that selection and users will interfere with each other. Writing to a session custom property would be better - or even to a custom property on that view. Let's call it view.custom.ddOption.

So I was wondering if it was possible to bind the dropdown value to a custom parameter that the Inline Frame component uses.

Sure. Construct the URL in an expression binding on the IFrame's `props.src'. Something like,

"https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/passing-data-to-an-iframe/88923"
+ {view.custom.ddOption}

Now the component should refresh anytime a value in the binding updates.
