Hi there! Is it possible to export Miro Mind Map with keeping the hierarchy? I’ve tried to export in CSV, but I get a flat list of items. Maybe it is possible using API?
How to export MindMap as a JSON?
We’ve been working happily with the API for a couple months now. . . working with network structure - mostly from the angle of import and render to board. - learn more about that here- but getting the network structure from the board and json-ifying it would be trivial. We’re almost doing that on one of our Miro apps. … here let me make a quick demo of that in action…
At 1:20 you’ll see how close we are to what you’re hoping to do.
Happy to chat more with you about how to accomplish this. Always eager to help. email me at max@refractivestrategy.com
This might help a little - it won’t give you a hierarchy across different columns though.
Setting up the structure of the map so that each parent is higher than its children results in an exported CSV that is in order - so each parent has its children listed underneath it. My guess is that the export process reads left to right, top to bottom by line.

I'm trying to create a new MindMap to represent all knowledge topics in our documentation (we have about 500). I already wrote the script which creates mind map nodes through Miro REST API - unfortunately the items created through API don't look like real MindMap items; they are just text widgets glued to the board, they don't move with their parents.
Perhaps you found solution how to create “proper” mind map nodes through API?
Thanks!
