This is a significant gap in Miro for anyone trying to use Miro in an agile project
I am having the same error with Excel linking. Was this ever resolved? - posted on wrong thread, sorry!
Hi @jwitth
Thanks for your message — and no worries about posting in the wrong thread!
To clarify: Miro does not currently support live syncing or linking with Excel. That includes importing structured Excel data into Miro tables or keeping them updated in real time.
As a workaround, you can use Google Sheets instead:
-
Miro allows you to embed a Google Sheet directly into your board.
-
The sheet will remain live and editable, so changes made in the Google Sheet will reflect immediately within Miro.
-
This provides a similar experience to real-time syncing, and your team can collaborate on the data directly from the board.
If Excel support is critical for your workflow, we recommend submitting or upvoting a request in the Miro Wish List. This helps our product team prioritize user needs.
Here’s one to upvote directly:
Two-way live data connection
Let us know if you’d like help setting up the Google Sheet integration!
Thank you for your response! Just to clarify, what does the Excel tool option listed in Miro do? My understanding was it would display a static “image” of the content in the Excel file.
