The so-called "headless" mode allows you to embed web applications or parts of them without a menu bar in your own applications (for example, in an iFrame), provided that they already provide a navigation.
To use a web application in headless mode
Use the format https://<server name>/<application name>/#/headless/ for the URLs that you want to embed into the application.
Example
https://ExampleServer/ApiServer/html/qer-app-portal/#/headless/dashboard
