Embed Codes

My students are embedding their Arcade-published projects into a digital portfolio. However, when they press copy the HTML code from the Embed box, it does not publish. For example, this student produced the Monster Maze game and posted with Private visibility on the GameSalad arcade:
When you scroll to the bottom, and collect the Embed code (which is an iFrame function written in HTML), the code does not display anything on a new webpage. The platform we use, Instracture's Canvas, looked into and found that the link provided was faulty. What we discovered was that the code generated an unusual link for the iFrame source:
When used in the whole embed code, nothing would be displayed on the page. However, when we pasted the above link into the web browser, we were directed to a new link:
If we applied the new secure link (https://embed.gsrca.de....) into the same iFrame code, it worked perfectly.
Is this a bug that can be fixed? I can show my students the process for getting the correct code, but it seems like it might helpful to make a request for a one-time, copy-and-paste code for embedding.
