We're deploying 6.3.2 with docker deployment. Some of our users reported that if they have [blocked third party cookie and site data](https://www.chromium.org/for-testers/bug-reporting-guidelines/uncaught-securityerror-failed-to-read-the-localstorage-property-from-window-access-is-denied-for-this-document), all the dashboard/visualization embedded in other HTML would show such error message:

Version: 6.3.2  
Build: 17307  
Error: Uncaught SecurityError: Failed to read the 'sessionStorage' property from 'Window': Access is denied for this document. (http://\*\*\*\*\*\*\*/bundles/commons.bundle.js:3)  
at window.onerror (http://\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*o/bundles/commons.bundle.js:3:778155)

The only configs (via environment variables) are:

```
    - name: ELASTICSEARCH_URL
      value: http://xxxxxxxxxxxxx:9200
    - name: XPACK_MONITORING_UI_ENABLED
      value: "true"

```

And there's a [similar issue](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/kibana-iframe-share-not-work-for-chrome/87173) reported 18 months ago but doesn't get a response.

Is there any workaround?

Would you mind clarifying what you mean by this?

Hi,

I mean I embed a dashboard or a visualization from Kibana in other site within a \<iframe src="\<kibana\_dashboard\_iframe\_url\_from\_sharing"\>

Gotcha. The disable third-party cookies settings is restricting the access to read/write to sessionStorage as well when Kibana is hosted in an iframe. I'd recommend opening up an Issue in our [GitHub](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new/choose) to request the ability to use Kibana in this context, as there are quite a few things that rely on this ability currently, and there isn't a graceful fallback.
