Additional Information

Unfortunately, this is not possible due to SharePoint’s security settings. Specifically, SharePoint sets the X-FRAME-OPTIONS HTTP header to SAMEORIGIN, which prevents its pages from being embedded in external sites. Additionally, the error message indicates that SharePoint's Content Security Policy (CSP) restricts which domains can frame its content, and ArcGIS Hub and Enterprise Sites are not included in that list. Refer to the following Microsoft documentation: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/troubleshoot/sites/cannot-display-sharepoint-pages-in-iframe for more details on this restriction.
