Embedding a Google document via the onebox gem seems to be broken. All that displays is a blank placeholder. When trying new posts, I get the following error in the console: Load denied by X-Frame-Options: (Google Doc URL) does not permit cross-origin framing. I’ll paste the URL of a sample docu…

Michael, are you sure you published the Google Doc you are trying to onebox? Google Doc needs to be published (not shared) for embedding. More info here . In my testing the published Google Doc is getting embedded. Discourse Onebox Discourse Onebox Embed testing! …

I agree with this @techAPJ [image] alehandrof: An attractive link is sufficient. It’s a spreadsheet, after all. I’m not going to try and view it in a tiny window. Can you add that to your list? Embedding a full Google spreadsheet, doc, etc is kind of insane when you think about it..
