Whitelisted applications

Compliance

Whitelisted applications released by the Fresco team have a valid TPSA and have been assessed by the InfoSec team.
 
Embedding a whitelisted service assumes compliance with the following:
  • The embed is display-only/public-content only
  • No API keys, secrets, tokens, or service credentials are exposed to site visitors
  • No University SSO, staff/student identifiers, email addresses, or personal data are passed to the embed provider unless separately assessed
  • No confidential, sensitive, unpublished, participant-level, or restricted research data is embedded
  • The service is not used to collect form submissions, comments, analytics identifiers, or user-generated content unless separately reviewed
  • Site Owners remain accountable for ensuring the content they embed is appropriate for publication and licensing

Available embeddable services

Sharepoint Online is no longer supportable and is being removed from the whitelist.

Embed functionality is under development. This page will be updated as more applications are released. 

An indicative timeline is provided on the Fresco roadmap.

How to embed

  • Copy the embed code provided by the third-party application
  • Add the Embed component to a section level layout
  • Paste in the embed code

Please note the Fresco Service team can't troubleshoot issues with third-party applications. Refer to the support pages on the provider's website for guidance.

Changes may have been made to enhance this feature since we last updated this page. See What’s new for the latest release information.
