Restrict copying & downloading for Visitors and external Facilitators with edit access?

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for a way to secure my board content while maintaining interactivity. I have two specific scenarios I need help with:

1. Visitor Access (via link): I want to grant Visitors editing access (so they can move elements and write). However, I need to prevent them from:

  • Duplicating the entire board to their account.

  • Downloading/Exporting the board (as PDF, image, etc.).

  • Copying individual elements to other boards.

2. External Facilitators: If I invite an external Facilitator to the board who is not part of my team/workspace, can I also restrict them from downloading or copying the board and its elements, even if they need full editing rights to run the session?

My questions:

  • Is it possible to separate "edit rights" from "copy/download rights" for these roles?

  • Which Miro plan do I need to access these granular permission settings? 

  • If this is not officially foreseen, can you think of any workarounds?

Thanks in advance for your insights!

    Hi ​@Isabelle Kranabetter thanks for reaching out! 

     

    My questions:

    • Is it possible to separate "edit rights" from "copy/download rights" for these roles?

    • Which Miro plan do I need to access these granular permission settings? 

    • If this is not officially foreseen, can you think of any workarounds?

    Yes it is possible. You can set this up in the board’s sharing settings. Adjust the permission based on your preference under who can copy board content. This is available on Education and any paid plans.
