Hi!

I am trying to embed the Hurricane Maria Photo Story Map from NAPSG Foundation http://arcg.is/2f6n5z7 in another Story Map that I created and experiencing that the Story Map from NAPSG never resolves. I am able to access the map otherwise. 

Please advice how to fix issue.

Note: Working for a non-profit to help with Hurricane Maria Relief

Thanks!!!

Antonio, can you provide us with more information. I'm having trouble understanding what you are trying to do.

  • Are you trying to embed this crowdsource source into another app: https://www.arcgis.com/apps/StoryMapCrowdsource/index.html?appid=78b819db2f1446b0ac7c93252a53c5ff?
  • Or are you trying to embed this webpage into an app: CrowdRescue HQ? You will not be able to embed this app in another story that uses an https (secure URL) because the server hosting that app does not support a https secure connection. All modern browsers block insecure content from being loaded in a secure connected app. This is a security restriction set in place by browsers to prevent viewer's sensitive information from being leaked and does not have a workaround. If you would like to embed this app, you will need to contact the server admin and have them add a signed SSL Certificate to the server. You can still add a link to this website that will open in a new tab.
  • Are you attempting to embed one of those apps (so the app is loaded within the other app) or link to one of those apps (Clicking a link open the app in a new browser tab)?
  • Which Story Map are you trying to embed/link the the app in. Here's a list of the our apps to choose from: Apps | Story Maps.
  • Can you share the steps you used to embed the app?

Hi Antonio

Share your story link here if you like. It is possible, for example, that your story map is using HTTPS but the content you are embedding uses HTTP, which therefore can't be displayed.

See our FAQ about embedding: https://storymaps.arcgis.com/en/faq/#question24  
It includes a link to a troubeshooting blog post for embedded content.

Hi Antonio,

Can you provide a little more information about how you are embedding the app. Which story map are you using? Also, can you share the steps you used to embed the app? Do you have a URL to share so we can see if there are any errors?

I was able to embed it without issues: http://testing-story.maps.arcgis.com/apps/MapSeries/index.html?appid=35a85b3dd6e448608212da722aa98ff...
