Chart from Power BI from a user in an IFrame - asp.net

I am creating a webpage that will display charts from a Power BI dashboard.
Upon entering the website the user must log in with their Office 365 account, so that I can access their dashboard and display their charts on my webpage.
Any leads on how I can put a specific chart in an iframe?

Update: Since I originally answered this question, much has changed.
In application embedding: if you're building a secure web site and want to embed content from a user's Power BI account, you can use our tile and report embedding capabilities. At the link you'll find documentation and samples to get you started.
Public anonymous embedding: if you're a blogger, journalist, or organization looking to embed reports publicly to share data or tell a story using data, you can use the Power BI Publish to web feature. It allows you to take a report from your Power BI account and with a few clicks publish it so anyone on the internet can view and access it.
As always if you're looking for a new feature head over to our ideas site so we can let you know when we've completed items you've asked for.

Google Maps Info Cards With Events?

I am currently working on a project for new homes throughout neighborhoods in Indiana. I'm using Google Fusion tables to populate the map on my site.
We want to be able to force users to sign in after they click the "builder site" link on the info card (the pop up from the google location marker). Is there a way to add events to the google info cards?
You can't do this with stock Fusion Tables info windows because we scrub any JavaScript in them. You can code this up yourself if you want; see this question for an example.
A cleaner way might be to process all the links on your own HTTP server, showing the login page if necessary or redirecting to the builder site if not. That would work with no custom client code, but would require the appropriate server-side setup.

Tracking page views and interactions for individual users in a web site

I'd like to track the activity per user and know how they interact with the different options and try to track all the possible clicks performed by a user.
At best would like to use a third party tool instead to create a tracking system from scratch, that definitely will boost my project development because that's a core part of my system.
I think that google analytics can perform such tasks but I can't go into that level of detail per user.
I'm using C# / ASP.NET MVC 4
thanks
Google Analytics (free version) does not let you view data on indivual visitor basis, only aggregated reports. The only way would be to store a unique id per visitor as a custom var and segment by that variable, which would be hugely inconvenient, would quite possibly violate Googles TOS and would still not quite work the way you want to.
You could for example install Piwik (if you're on PHP/Mysql) - that's an open source tracking package that, while it's pretty much useless for ad campaign management, is a halfway decent way to track how visitors move around on your site (plus, you have access to the raw data). Be aware that Piwik doesn't scale well, you'll need a lot of hardware for a big site.

How to create an audio streaming site in the style of Lynda or other video-training sites?

I would like to make a streaming store like Lynda.com, Udemy.com, or other video-training websites - where the customer can buy and/or subscribe to my digital library, but the customer can only stream the content, no downloading. Is this something I should do in WordPress, Shopify, or something else? A key aspect would be the customer being able to go back-and-forth between buying an individual stream and a monthly subscription without losing their purchased streams.
The content will be self-created audio files. As far as the audio-player, I was thinking about using SoundCloud.com and privatizing the audio on SoundCloud.com. Then embed the audio onto the site to prevent pirating and rely on a third-party site to host the audio content rather than burdening the hosting provider. Or is there a better solution?
Thanks for any feedback!
You CAN use Wordpress, but there will need to be more involved then just setting up a basic website. You'll need to provide the user with a unique URL to stream the content from.
Other than building a custom platform, you can use something like http://buddypress.org/ to create user profiles. And only allow paid users to access certain content.
Shopify will only help with taking orders. Not giving users account access to login.
You could use shopify, then build out a user login side using something like Heroku. We had a similar goal to build a marketplace for live music bookings - basically the difference here being that the artists were the users, not the customers. We used Collections as profiles and Products as bookable packages. We simply embedded youtube vids and made sure to turn off recommendations in the youtube embed code. We currently make this information public, but it could be behind a login (the basic login/account that shopify provide) in your instance. It would be a little bit manual: e.g. they 'purchase' the subscription, then they create a login at checkout, whereby they're then able to access the videos/audio.
Have a play with our marketplace as an example of what I mean: tremolo.com.au

Using Facebook Connect for User Data in Drupal

I have a Drupal site where I want to allow users to add their current Facebook Events that they themselves have created into a custom database. I'm not looking to use Facebook Connect as a User Management system, just trying to get someone's info after they accept.
More specifically I'm looking for a way to access a user's Facebook events info from a Drupal Page using PHP. I want them to be able to hit a button and give me access to their events.
Did you take a look at http://drupal.org/project/fb and http://www.drupalforfacebook.org/ ?
The FB module works pretty well, is mostly sane to use, and the author is responsive to bug reports.
