If you experience problems using the External URL tile in a dashboard, consider the following issues:
- When configuring the External URL tile for the dashboard, you must comply with the following standards:
  - The web address must begin with http:// or https://
    For example: https://www.example.com
- If you are configuring a portlet such as P6 or Unifier, you must be logged in to the application to see data. This is a static image in which you cannot make changes. If you do not have access to the application shown in the portlet, you will not see any data.
- Select Preview when configuring an External URL tile to validate the web address. If the web address is invalid, you will receive a message.
- Some web pages are set to not allow their content to be embedded in another page. To view the content from these web pages, you will need to open a new browser tab.
