We have a react application and we are embedding lucid chart documents there. It works find until we click on other links. Imagine, I have a link within lucid chart to a different document. Once, I click on that link my expected behavior is to open that link within the iFrame but instead of that the link opens in the parent window. How can I control this behavior and open links within the iFrame ?

By default, external links should open in the parent window but I will double check this with our API team and get back to you.

Thank you for the response. What I am trying to do is add another Lucidchart diagram as a link to my parent diagram. I do this by adding it as a document. Then I activate the embed document for the parent diagram and display it in my React application. Then this parent diagram is displayed in my application within an iFrame. What I want to achieve is when I click the link of the parent diagram, it should open in the same iFrame.
I haven't found an alternative for this yet, but I found another workaround. I added the diagram into the parent diagram but on a different page. Then I removed the document link and added the page link. Then the page changes within the same iFrame. For the moment, it works, but it is a burden to have so many pages within one diagram.
I hope you understood my concern, and please ask me for further clarifications if needed.
