Hello, everyone!

I’m trying to use the IFrame component in Ignition Perspective to open a different Perspective project hosted on the same server by passing the project’s URL into the IFrame’s src property.

Here is the current configuration of my IFrame:

```
URL in src: http://192.168.201.40:8088/data/perspective/client/OtherProject/ViewPath
Other properties:
    referrerPolicy: no-referrer
    allowFullScreen: false

```

However, I’m encountering the following issue:

```
Error loading resources: Project fetch failed: AxiosError: Request failed with status code 403

```

See the image below for reference:

I don't see the port for Ignition in your actual src in the screenshot

edit:

I am not sure if it matters if it is the same gateway but you may need to update your conf file. (403 is typically authentication error) [Gateway and Gateway Network Parameters | Ignition User Manual](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/docs/8.1/appendix/reference-pages/gateway-configuration-file-reference/gateway-and-gateway-network-parameters#x-frame-options)

> Hi all, We are trying to open a Perspective session within a browser based MES system. After disabling x-frame the session starts but stops at Authenticating … SAMEORIGIN does not work Allow-From makes the Gateway not start. The MES system prefer Internet Explorer 11. Any ideas, please?
