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.  

I am just starting out with Miro, and evaluating this for potential use by my team and others.  I am struggling with some basic features though.  I want to simply delete an object from the board.  I am surprised that this is not accomplished with the delete, backspace, or escape keys, nor is it covered in any of the tutorials, articles, community posts that I’ve seen so far.  It seems like a pretty basic feature.  I am sure it is something obvious that I am missing.

I’m being logged out every 90 mins. I’m finding it quite disruptive as I often have multiple miro tabs open for reference. I wouldn’t really consider the Increase from 30 to 90 mins “good news” It seems a simple thing to be able to fix and return to a more normal session timeout of say 30 days. Is this possible?

My company admin has moved boards from one team to another. However, I am unable to view the boards moved into the new team. I am classified as TEAM ADMIN for both these teams. Company admin does see that the boards have been moved to new team. But with my account I do not see any of those boards moved.

Earlier I did see full EDIT rights for same MIRO boards.

When I click on SHARE, then ANYONE WITH THE LINK is missing EDIT option. I did see EDIT earlier. Has anything changed in MIRO tool?

Hi all,    Apologies of this is not the correct place for this question (couldn’t find a way to context Miro directly).    I need to delete my Miro team admin as they haven’t worked at this company for several months. Does anyone know a way that I can transfer admin to a different team member?    Thanks

I have shared my board as “Anyone with the link can edit” and added a password to the board. Still, most of the collaborators that I have shared the board link to can not access the board at all. They can only access the page where the password is asked, but after applying the password, the Miro-logo just keeps on rolling, and nothing happens. Can anyone help? I am thinking is this issue related to company’s firewall or something, as they are from different companies. For my company’s colleagues accessing the board seems not to be an issue.I have a team plan.  

Hi Community :)After a workshop one participant has accidentally logged in again, deleted major information, logged out, realized the mistake and tried to fix it - but couldn’t.Is there any way for us to restore the information?Thanks in advance for your help.Kind regardsManuel

I’m using boards to consult with big groups of stakeholders and maintaining the same link it key to the ongoing conversation - however I don’t want the pink change highlighting coming up for them all as there are various degrees of capability and it’s a real visual set back with some stakeholders. 

For me, the text box is literally unusable. Is there any settings which must be changed ? Here is the problem,When I select the text box, I get a line and it expands to box when the font size is ridiculously high and size entire Miro page, I cannot get the size of the of text box to my desired size I am not able to format it and use as it is just a line

I read in Miro’s help guide that you can move multiple objects at once by holding down shift while selecting them, but I am wondering if there is any other function/setting that could allow an image and text to be attached to each other and move as one piece on the board? The usage for my board involves clicking and dragging text to different sections, and I am wanting to add pictures to each text box to move them as a unit. A follow up question to this (I’m fairly new to miro): is there a certain template that would be most ideal for being able to incorporate images / move them around with blocks of text? I had been using Kanban but am seeing that adding images might not work here due to the format of the template and the movement of the text boxes being limited to their designated spaces in the chart. Thank you!! 

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 t

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?  

Is miro also available in differnt language

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

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?

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.

Are tags board specific? They don’t go from board to board? It seems like I have to create the same tag on each board, but I am new and might be missing something.  any suggestions?thank you! 

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! 

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? 

During a workshop with an external consultant we created a Miro-board wich is grown during the past 9 month. Now we want to export the board and create a backup. Unfortunately we don’t now the board owner. How can we identify the board owner? 

Installed JIRA Cards app / integration.  documentation and video suggests i click on the link to access the settings that are needed to be entered on the JIAR side.  The Jira Cards app is displayed but when i click on it it lists its s installed by myself - the words “JIAR CARDS” is not a click able link and therefore i can not access the settings needed to configure the other end ???I have a Team subscription.Jira is server version (although dont get that far) 

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. 

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.
