Looker Studio Embedded dashboard does not loads the data

[VentureData]

I have a dashboard built in Looker Studio and wanted to have it password protected and embedded in our site. The embedding works fine except when I load the dashboard, it does not load the data the first time I load the dashboard until I interact with the dashboard like chaging date range.. The second time works fine. But when I clear my cache and load it again, it doesn't load and do the same thing. It's also slower compared to when I directly use it in Looker Studio. Am I doing something wrong here? What could be the issue that causes slowness and data does not load sometimes?

Hi @VentureData, thanks for your post!

I am wondering if applying filter properties or a date range to your report prior to getting the embed HTML from Looker Studio would help. It sounds like the data is waiting for user input (changing the date range, for example) to load. I'm looking at the Limits section of the Embed a report documentation page, and it seems adding a filter control instead of or in addition to the filter control you have set up could help. 

As for the slowness, it could depend on a variety of factors, including how large your report is, how large the data set is, the elements on the web page that the report is embedded on, or browser type, among other things.
