Embedding failed because of invalid URL or authorization code. Both of these must be valid and the authorization code must not be expired for embedding to work

[hubaozhang]

(1) I have C# code to get embedded dashboard url

var ret = await client.GetDashboardEmbedUrlAsync(new GetDashboardEmbedUrlRequest { AwsAccountId = _awsAccountID, DashboardId = _dashboardId, Namespace = default, IdentityType = EmbeddingIdentityType.QUICKSIGHT, SessionLifetimeInMinutes = 600, UndoRedoDisabled = true, ResetDisabled = true, UserArn = _userArn }).ConfigureAwait(false); return ret.EmbedUrl;

(2) After I get the embedded url, I uses

to embed the dashboard in html div

this.embeddedDashboard = await embeddingContext.embedDashboard(
			frameOptions,
			contentOptions
		);

(3) I used the embedded url several times with different data to display same quicksight dashboard to generate different reports.

(a) First call is successful
(b) Second call results in following error
Embedding failed because of invalid URL or authorization code. Both of these must be valid and the authorization code must not be expired for embedding to work.

How do I need to do resolve the issue?

Same dashboard embed url failed to render second time

Hi, I’m using generate_embed_url_for_anonymous_user(SessionTags is being used and SessionLifetimeInMinutes is set to 600) to render url for frontend to embed. This is all working fine until I navigated away from the page embedding the dashboard and back where I got error “Embedding failed because of invalid URL or authorization code. Both of these must be valid and the authorization code must not be expired for embedding to work”. So internally, I’m using GraphQL endpoint to generate the embed…

Thanks for the link. The link has answers why it is not working, but there is no answer how to solve the problem.
