For Spotify, you need to use their **share** → **embed track** → **copy** feature and indeed add `https://open.spotify.com/` in your allowed iframes.

Tiktok and IG reels share codes use a `blockquote` along a `<script>` elements, so it won’t work straightforwardly as script tags aren’t allowed in posts.  
I also suppose Discourse’s onebox doesn’t support them yet.  
I don’t know if there are any working iframe links that could display them.

Did you use the search? I quicky found those:

Tiktok embedding is discussed here:

You can embed tiktok video like this:  
For example, for [https://www.tiktok.com/@mobsao/video/7181493818871565574](https://www.tiktok.com/@mobsao/video/7181493818871565574)

```

Instagram reels embedding is discussed here:

> I don’t know if this is a bug, because I can barely find mention of Reels, short of [102 and 103 here](https://meta.discourse.org/t/onebox-assistant-crawl-for-those-previews-reliably/107405/102). Regardless, here I go – we went through the steps in [How to obtain an App Token to allow Instagram Oneboxes](https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-obtain-an-app-token-to-allow-instagram-oneboxes/223548) and succeeded. But I was deficient in my testing, which @deb_mitchell figured out – it was actually just any https://www.instagram.com/p/ (photo) or https://www.instagram.com/tv/ (IGTV) URLs that worked. While https://www.instagram.com/reel/ URLs (Reels) deliver a screenshot from the v…
