Image export for system maps

I’m using the free account and although I’m grateful I can export an image - is there any way that this can be created in MIRO to be readable once exported for a document? I’m creating system and causal loop maps and need them for my research paper.

Students collaboration in MS Teams without an account

Dear coummunity, I am a teacher at a vocational college and until now I worked alone in the miro environment. Since digitalisation has become a bigger topic in the education sector I wish that my students could collaborate by using miro. My school got MS teams and beside "Moodle" (don't know if you know that) this is our main tool.I tried to integrate miro into Teams and with an online tutorial it worked well.But at this point I got a problem:When I provide a board in teams, the users in this specific channel only got the permission to watch but not to edit.When I unsterstand it right, for editing the board the users must have a miro account.But that's exactly my problem because in our school/in our education system it's not allowed that the students use an account where the servers are not hosted in my country - Germany.I really want to use miro with the students but is there any possibilty for me to allow editing by the students in MS Teams WITHOUT creating a miro account? Thank you

Preview of grouped objects

I’d like to create card like grouped objects. an image is covered by a shape and grouped. Participants are to move these cards around. image and cover later groupedIf I move the cards around I can’t see the preview of the image covered. Once others are looking at their screen while I am moving the card they see the preview.How can I stop this from happening? Is there another way to cover the image and have participants move the cards around without seeing the preview?

Trouble with participants reporting they could not unmute themselves

Hello,We put on our first Miro workshop yesterday and had 13 total participants, all using video chat. During our 2hr workshop, most participants muted themselves until they had something to say… we had 3 participants realize they were unable to unmute themselves at various times once they went to speak, despite clicking the “unmute” icon at the bottom center of the screen. A few were able to fix it by exiting the board and re-entering multiple times, but for one person the only thing that fixed it was a computer restart. Any advice or thoughts as to why this happened? It was disruptive to say the least for the participants that dealt with it :)Thank you!Travis

deleted tag removed from all sticky notes

We recently had a user (user unknown) who deleted a tag that was used on many sticky notes on a particular board. I looked through the activity log and it appears that tag creation/deletion is not tracked or available for restoration.In messing with the issue and trying to find a way to bring back the tags, I did note that there is already a helpful message notifying you that when you delete a tag, it is deleted from all notes, and offers an ‘undo’ option that’s available for… a few seconds. But it seems that once that message disappears, the tags are also gone forever.Any chance that our deleted tag is still recoverable after approximately a few days, or that tag deletion can be added as a restorable option in the activity log?

Epic Link unavailable when creating Jira issue in Miro

Hi everyoneWe have an issue with the Jira integration in Miro. When we try to create new Jira tickets in Miro, we are unable to fill in one of our mandatory fields, the Epic Link. It seems the list of epics we have in Jira, doesn’t sync to Miro? We don’t have this issue for all other fields where we have to select a value, such as assignee, projects, fix version, Team and so on. These are both custom and default fields in Jira.  Anyone have a solution for this problem?

[RESOLVED] Copying hyperlinks from cells in Excel into Stickies . . . used to work. : /

I’m wondering what happened . . . .I used to be able to create hyperlink/stickies to user stories in our internal Azure DevOps instance and bulk copy/paste those links as individual stickies on a Miro board.  Nothing fancy, nor over the top (<50).  All of the sudden, the links would come into Miro as plan text; no longer hyperlinks.  I can still use the ‘link’ feature to add the link once the sticky has been added, but, it adds so much time and steps to the process whereas before it was simply a single cut/paste.  The process used didn’t change.  I also enlisted colleagues to test and sure enough, they, too, lost the ability to create a sticky with a hyperlink.  What happened? Thanks, in advance.

Unable to Share Board

Hello, I have question regarding sharing a board. I am using the free plan, not a paid user. I tried to share my board with my teammates, but there is not pop up for me to choose the sharing option after I clicked SHARE on the top right. It became gray on the page, but no pop up menu. It didn’t work when I tried to grant access to my teammate either. Am I doing something wrong? Thank you for your helps!

Set a fixed dimension of a board

Hi,I’m going to use a board asynchronous with beginners.I will include the Navigation Mode-video https://vimeo.com/318988801 to support them to understand how to use and navigate the board.But I have question:Is it possible to set a fixed dimension on the board, meaning that a user can’t zoom out and get “lost space” and loose track of the board.?I know that I can use frames and zoom 100% and fit to screen functions to help the user to get back to the content in the board. But in the same way as I can set a start view. Is there a way to set the start view as the most zoomed out view? Or any other way of set a fixed dimension of the board so that user are not scrolling/zooming or panning away from the content?

iPad scrolling lock

in the ipad app, Is there anyway to “stop scrolling” with a single finger?I find it very difficult to write (using the pen)  as, as soon as I place the pen, the assumption is I want to scroll, when I want to write it.

New Table import from excel doesn't work properly?

Logged into Miro and was pleasantly surprised to see that Miro now allows you to paste excel table data into a grid. Great I’ve been waiting on this!!However it doesn’t work. If I insert a table. Select a cell and paste in my table data I just get an empty table (although it manages to pick up on the formatting.

Archive Teams with related boards

Hi guys,Your suggestions please. I’m on a Consultant plan and I create new Teams whenever I work with a new client. For that group I create team and for that ‘team’ I create (usually 2, sometimes 3) boards. Now, after a while, I have a huge list of teams in the left hand column, many of which I will rarely ever visit again, if only to copy some stuff I can re-use for another session with another team. And of course to keep a record of what I’ve done with them.This is why I would like to archive the teams (with the related boards). I do NOT want to delete ‘cause I want to keep the option open to re-use stuff I developed for a certain team and if, some years later, I ever work with them again (which happened very often over the years) I don’t care to look smart :-) having all the info from last time available.But I also only want my ‘active’ clients in the left hand bar!How could I solve or work-around this issue?Many thanks in advance!A very happy and satisfied ambassador forMiro,Luud

Upgrade without team

Does Miro have any plans to create an option for those of us who use Miro, want more boards but have no use for the Team-feature? 8 dollars would be fine for the Team option, except it’s not an option if you’re not - well - on a team. Why isn’t there an 8 dollar option for those of us who want a more advanced/flexible version but without the team? I would think Miro is missing out on an opportunity to monetise a relatively large portion of their user base.
