iFrames
Sometimes people will mistake an iFrame for an Integration - but they are very different things. An integration allows two separate platforms to operate seamlessly as one, whereas an iFrame creates a section in a platform where you can view another platform.
An iFrame is a frame within a frame. It is a component of an HTML element that allows you to embed documents, videos, and interactive media within a page. By doing this, you can display a secondary webpage on your main page (hostinger, 2020).
