How to migrate an old draw.io diagram to Miro

Moderator Response:

Hi ​@BenWJohnson — great question, and thanks for sharing that changelog reference. That definitely complicates things, but here are a few workarounds you can try:

Export as SVG or PNG, then import to Miro

• In draw.io, export your diagram as an SVG or PNG file

• In Miro, drag and drop the file onto the board
  → This keeps the layout but not editable shapes

Copy-paste elements manually

• Open both draw.io and Miro in split screen

• Manually copy-paste or recreate key elements using Miro’s built-in shapes and connectors
  → Slower, but gives you full editability in Miro

Convert draw.io to VSDX using a third-party tool

• Some third-party tools may allow you to convert .drawio or .xml files to .vsdx

• Use with caution — and test with a small file first

• Once in .vsdx, follow Miro’s import steps here

Hope this helps!
