Error retrieving SVG icon in Material Stackblitz example

[AsafAgranat]

Bug, feature request, or proposal:

Bug

What is the expected behavior?

SVG icon should display, in Material's own Stackblitz example from the examples page

What is the current behavior?

SVG icon is not displaying. Console message:
Error retrieving icon: <svg> tag not found

What are the steps to reproduce?

1. Go to the official icon-component Stackblitz example
2. Notice the icon is not displaying
3. Open console, and see the error message

Which versions of Angular, Material, OS, TypeScript, browsers are affected?

Material 6.0.1

Is there anything else we should know?

Could it be related to Stackblits blocking static assets like SVGs?

UPDATE:
Indeed, it's a static assets issue with Stackblitz. I tried with a remote URL and it worked fine.
You prolly should close this issue - but the Stackblitz example should be updated with remote assets.

@AsafAgranat I try with remote assets and I get the same error, any idea ?

[AsafAgranat]

@frankdavidcorona can you provide a stackblitz?

[liujiefengfeng]

Could you write down how you access it via remote assets?

Closing as this is actually an issue with Stackblitz hosting static assets.
