It's been requested that access is provided to the authentication API of Dashboards for embedded purposes.
Currently username and password need to be entered, while on embedded purposes this is not wanted.
Is something like this possible?

If you want to embed the Dashboards app within Cube (or another DataMiner application having an SLNet or WebAPI connection), then you can make use of the ticket url parameter (see Gilles answer).

If you want to embed the Dashboards app within a 3rd party app which does not have an SLNet nor WebAPI connection, then the most secure way of doing this would be to use external authentication (like SAML), which both DataMiner and the 3rd party app should use.
