SSRS 2016 Toolbar Back Button

I am trying to figure out in SSRS 2016 why the back button goes missing and how to get it back. I am adding the report into an iFrame of another application - I do not have access to that application's code, I just get to put in a URL.

If I put in a URL like this: http://sqlservername/Reports/report/Cityworks%20Reports/Parks/ParksReport?rs:embed=true

I get the back button, however the report does not scroll horizontally very well. enter image description here

If I put the URL in like this, the report scrolls horizontally very well however the back button goes missing: http://sqlservername/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?Cityworks+Reports%2fParks%2fParksReport&rs:Command=Render

enter image description here

I have tried to see what other options are available and am stumped at the moment. Has anyone come across this and know a solution?

One URL is for the Report manager, and the other for Browsing. The URL with YourServer\ReportServer is the browser landing page; there's therefore no "need" for the back button as it's purely a browsing page. If you go to http://YourServerName/ReportServer you'll see you have a page that very much looks like one you get with IIS with folder browsing enabled. Normally you only land on these pages when you receive a report by email, which contains a link to the report; or you are an end user.

The other URL YourServer\Reports is the report manager. It makes more sense here to have a back button, as you are navigating a management portal. As a result you could have come from other pages other than the folder browser page.
