Warning
titleWarning

The automatic login via the URL in the browser described below has been disabled for security reasons since Checkmk 2.2.0, because the credentials (user name and password) passed via URL are stored in the log files of the site-specific Apache (see Werk #14261). If you want to use automatic login via the URL despite this security risk, you must explicitly enable this with the global setting Setup > General > Global settings > User interface > Enable login via GET requests.

Please refer to our Official Documentation for additional information.

If you're considering doing this, please remember that this is a security issue and not supported by us. 

Determine the issue

You get the following broken page when opening an HTTPS Iframe within Checkmk.

The browser also produces an error about the missing Content-Secuirty-Policy (CSP). Please keep in mind that many Software/Pages do not want to be integrated as an Iframe due to security settings.
