When creating a new widget from the REST API, is there a way to set a URL as the ‘Link to’ value? If so, what does that look like in the JSON?

Hello @Fry,

 

Unfortunately, it is not possible to do this in the SDK at the moment. I will pass your request to the SDK team to consider making this possible in future versions of the SDK.

 

Kind regards.

      @Daniela Gavidia I would like to concur this would be a very helpful feature. The ability to “read” the current link value for widgets through the API would be very beneficial as well...

          Miro SDK is really missing some basic important features like this one, making it almost useless for most cases.

            Hello Pedro,
            Thank you for reaching out. Unfortunately, I don’t have any updates on this. It is not currently planned to be made available through the SDK or REST API. I will share this thread with the platform team to show that there is interest in this feature.

            Kind regards.

              while this isn’t precisely what you’re after I’m pretty sure you can insert an <a href=“”></a> into the text/content of various widgets?
