rendering web pages in confluence

[lance_lyons]

We are wondering if there is a way to render a web page from another site (like System Center Operations Manager) in a page on confluence.

Is this possible?

Thanks

Lance

Hi Lance,

you can try write your own user macro via Velocity. There you can use iframe or something like this for create a view of your page 

User macros can write admins in admin console, there is a User Macro a there you can create a new one.

Something like this:

#param URL:title=URL|required=true
 
<iframe src="#paramURL" width="90%" height="90%">
</iframe>

Ok thanks Davin.    I have a question perhaps you might know the answer.

The page URL that we want to render requires a Active Directory login.  How would we provide a login to Operations Manager for the URL being render?

You would just point the iframe to the login page for Ops Manger.

If you get the Content Formatting Macros one of the macros included is an iframe macro, which will let you do this. There is also the built-in HTML include macro, but it is not very good as it does not bring in the styles and JavaScript.
