tldraw integration does not show content

[glungtung]

On my v0.75.2 self-hosted outline, when I insert a tldraw link in my outline document, or when i use /tldraw integration with my tldraw link, i have a white frame with a "Visit this page on tldraw.com" link. The link is working properly, but i don't see tldraw content in the integrated frame
I've tried this with different tldraw document type : shared link, read-only link, snapshot link

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. type /tldraw, enter
2. paste my tldraw document link

Expected behavior
a frame with my tldraw document content

Desktop (please complete the following information):

It seems as though tldraw may have blocked embeds entirely, checking with their team…

I found a working embed there : https://tldraw.dev/

Hi this issue Stems from tldraw Side blocking iFrame integration of their Hosted version. I suggest natively integrating their SDK into the Codebase
also see #4174

Yes, I'm talking to the founder of TLDraw – this is likely a temporary limitation on their side while they figure out how to make embeds enabled again without inviting abuse.

@tommoor Thx for looking into this matter :)
but why not integrate their SDK imho thats what tldraw is designed to do instead of relying on their hosted service?
The other discussion about this problem is 2 years old so maybe they just dont want ppl to do this
from my perspective wanting to selfhost the entire wiki i find it counterproductive to rely on tldraws hosted instance for my data

Thanks! Integrating tldraw would be indeed very neat but I wouldn’t expect that much from negotiations. That’s because they’ve changed course very drastically (went de-facto closed source). Therefore I would suggest to fork the last version of tldraw published under Apache license and ditch copyright infringing material.

It’s very hard to build open source software based on closed source components with very harsh usage limitations.

What do you think? @tommoor

The current integration is just a quick way for folks to preview TLDraw links within Outline. The maintainer has suggested they plan on re-enabling this iframing (source) once abuse has been dealt with (understandable).

While there might be some thought behind integrating a fully integrated drawing interface into Outline that would be a much larger project, especially as Outline has it's own multiplayer framework, storage requirements, etc.

FWIW I'm not dogmatic about OSS here – we integrate with lots of commercial products because the reality is these often have a better UX and larger user numbers.
