I am trying to embed an audio player in an iframe (for instance: http://radio.immo/share/player_mini/video=false&digest=true&auto=true&resp=false&mode=broadcast&id=97475) to listen to podcasts or live broadcasts within linkedIn posts. Basically, however, my questions would be the same for any player or web application to be embedded in an iframe.
I managed to use oEmbed, as explained in the following post:
https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/embedding-content-linkedin-posts-using-oembed-david-max ,
I implemented it for test purpose on the following web page:
http://saooti.wikiradios.com/broadcast/42660-Emission-avec-Antoine
I added in this page a link:
<link rel="alternate" type="text/json+oembed" href="/attachments/HPUserContent/oembed.json?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsaooti.wikiradios.com%2Fbroadcast%2F42660-Emission-avec-Antoine&format=json"/>
pointing to the json file:
{
"version": 1,
"type": "rich",
"provider_name": "Saooti",
"provider_url": "https://saooti.wikiradios.com",
"height": 41,
"width": 319,
"title": "Emission avec Antoine",
"description": "Une émission en direct pour Antoine... (Insertion, jeunesse, test)",
"thumbnail_url": "https://saooti.wikiradios.com/attachments/images/broadcast/42660/image.png",
"html": "<iframe id=\"iframe\" style=\"width:319px;height:281px;border:none;overflow:hidden;\" src=\"http://saooti.wikiradios.com/share/player_mini/video=false&digest=true&auto=true&resp=false&mode=broadcast&id=42660\"></iframe>",
"author_name": "Saooti Admin",
"author_url": "http://saooti.wikiradios.com/user/3-3-Saooti-Admin"
}
It doesn’t work:
when I share this web page, I get the matching photo, with a nice "play" button on it, but when I click the button, I am just forwarded to the page, when I was hoping to get an audio player in an iframe. I guess it's because a validation from linkedIn is required…
My questions are:
- is it really a question of validation/authorization by linkedIn or did I make any mistake?
- If it is a question of validation/authorization:
- which is the process to follow for retrieving this authorization?
- Is this authorization granted by web domain ?
Thank you for your answers,
