Guests & Activities

Is there a way to run a collaborative session using Activities with participants that can only use creation tools that I have specifically allowed? I made some tests, inviting guests that can only view or comment, and they don’t have access to creation tools from Activities. And this makes sense. But if I invite guests that can edit, they can obviously use any kind of tool, not only those allowed for Activities.

I would like — if possibile — to take advantage of Activities to run a collaborative session, but with people (guests, visitors?) that can't mess things up while being able to use Activities creation tools 😁

It’s obviously me, and I’m probably missing something 😕

I’m currently on a Consultant plan because I need to better understand if I need a Business or a Started plan. Could be the Consultant plan the reason why I can’t do what I need in this case?

Thanks!

@ilpiac - This is currently not possible, however, I like where you’re going with this idea.

One solution to this problem could be a new board-level user role called “Contributor”, where this type of role could only modify the content they add. I created a Wish List post for this feature a short while back. Please upvote if you think this role could be useful → https://community.miro.com/ideas/new-board-level-role-contributor-10814

However, if you feel that idea doesn’t truly reflect what you are looking to accomplish, I’d recommend adding this as an Idea in the Wish List category by following the guidelines here: Wish List: Everything You Need to Know. Or, I could just move this post to the Wish List category -- you would just need to give me a new title for the post, e.g., “Participants can only edit when in active Activities session”.

If you do create a Wish List Idea post, I would also recommend that you post a link to it back here, so that future readers of this post can quickly get to and vote for your Idea.

@Robert Johnson thanks! I like your idea of a Contributor role. Just upvoted it. It would perfectly work in this case too.
