SharePoint 2010 & Exchange 2013 OWA integration

Question

All, 

Quick question.  Been trying to add my Exchange 2013 OWA calendar to my SharePoint 2010 My Site as either a "Page Viewer" web part or as a "My Calendar" Outlook Web App my part.  Been researching the heck out of this, and from everything I'm seeing, since Exchange 2013 OWA has iFrames disabled, SharePoint can't link to OWA with Exchange 2013 web parts.  Keep getting an error stating "This content can't be displayed in a frame."  Anyone know a workaround?  Normally I'm an Exchange guy by trade, but got tasked with this SharePoint question...

Any help is beyond appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi Statik,

Please refer to the steps below:

1.Add page viewer web part to the page and insert the link below:

https://exch/owa/[e-mail]/?cmd=contents&module=calendar

2.Replace the [e-mail] with specific account email address

3.Adjust web part appearance height: 1020px and width: 860px

Regards,

Thanks Rebecca, tried every combo of URL, including that one.  I'm seeing that Microsoft dropped iFrame support in OWA 2013, so those URL's don't work in SharePoint Page Viewer.

Tried to adjust appearance, but still getting "This content cannot be displayed in a frame".

I just don't think this will work with Exchange 2013 & SharePoint 2010...

Hi,

I understand that using the full OWA user interface in a custom iFrame HTML tag is not supported in SharePoint 2013, and so far no dev method could solve it. Here is a KB article that illustrates this.

I don't have the envrionment for SharePoint 2010 integration with Exchange 2013. I tested the issue in my SharePoint 2013 integration with Exchange 2013, posting the screenshot below. I'd like to double confirm it with you that:

When IE pops up for Show all content, please click it. Next time you will be prompted for credentials for OWA.

Alternatily, you could use content editor, please refer to link below for detail:

Answer 4

As per my findings are , Since OWA webparts renders in an iframe and there is chance of click-jacking malicious attack, Microsoft has released Security update,

So at this point I would say, won’t be render in SharePoint portal with security patch update. Here are few more articles that explains the same.
