Using REST API to create Widgets, can they be attached to existing widget context?

For some context, I’m looking to connect another one of our applications to Miro to populate a Kanboard with Project data. I’m accomplishing the creation and description portion of this idea programatically, but needing to put the idea into the correct swimlane that indicates each individual projects progress manually. Also unable to add tags programatically which contains project tag data.  I’m wondering if the kanban board will ever get support to add cards to an existing kanboard via api, and also interested in when adding tags to cards will be a supported feature.

Question about anonymous boards

Hello everyone, I am using the embed miro whiteboard to enable users to create anonymous board. One of our customers ask us how Miro handle them. Are they deleted after an amount of days or are they stored forever ?I have searched in the documentation but I have found nothing about that. Thanks for your help :)

Rate limit for SDK usage

Hi, the REST API rate limit and how to control it by using the responses is good described and works well (Even if being slow. But it is anyhow limited to 1000 widgets, but this is another question...). How can I control the rate limit for the SDK usage?The only statement I have found so far is: “The Miro SDK enforces rate limits on widget operations. Each operation (create, update, or delete) on one widget costs one point. The current rate limit is 10,000 points per minute, summed over all widgets, and overall web-plugins, executing in a single client.”Do I need to count on my own? Or are there any methods to check the remaining points or the time when the rate limit is replentished? Thanks and regards,Sebastian

Problem updating a widget via the API: "Unsupported Media Type"

I’ve only been using the Miro API for a couple of hours, and I searched the board for a solution to this problem, but nothing came up.I’m trying to use the API to update sticky notes with new text from an Airtable database. My test code in an Airtable scripting block is successful in retrieving all widgets on a board and isolating those widgets that are sticky notes, but I’ve hit a snag when attempting to update them. The API docs only show a partial code example for updating a widget, and while I can successfully update one of these sticky notes interactively using the “Try It” button in the docs, my code always returns a 415 error: “Unsupported Media Type”. I’m only trying to update the widget text, so I don’t know why this media-type error is coming back.Here’s how I’m setting up the fetch options:The docs list a “RAW_BODY” body parameter, but the code example doesn’t show where this should go. I’ve tried adding an outer object with that parameter wrapped around the main object, but

Pass a long string to modal

The app is supposed to run at client side only, and wrigin the string to board, then reading it from the modal is not a good option.This is the sudo code:`miro.board.ui.openModal('./editor.html', { dataToBePassedToModal: text })`Is that possible?

Display panel to multiple users

Hi,I am experimenting with miro’s webplugins. I’d like to display a panel to all people currently viewing the board, similar to how the voting plugin does it. How can I do this? I’d also like to synchronize data between all of the people currently using the board. Is there some sort of data store?Regards,John

My experience of developing a Miro app

We have just finished a plugin for Miro that allows a user to “syncronise” widget content. Change one widget in a sync group and the change is propagated across all widgets in that group. The app is called CarbonCopy and we hope to see it on the Marketplace soon. Here’s a loom for you to get a preview.Here’s a summary of our encountered challenges.identified workarounds and challenges in MiroMissing widget update capabilities when widget changes: https://community.miro.com/developer-platform-forum-57/identify-changes-in-miro-widget-2845 Image meta-data updates aren’t working, which means we were unable to implement image widgets: https://community.miro.com/developer-platform-forum-57/image-widget-doesn-t-allow-metadata-update-2894 Buttons in the WidgetContextMenu iframe implementation cause slightly laggy widget performance when the widget has a plugin button in the widget’s extension menu.

Feature request for release of Notion.so API

Hello!   I would like to put forward a topic (and request) about creating a live diagram from a Notion instance in Miro, once the Notion API finally is released (and which we have no details on I realize...). What I’d like to accomplish is visualize all my relationships in Notion “live” in Miro via API.  I have experimented with Jira and Asana cards, but neither take into account relationships at all.  I’d use this to visualize my website and dev platform, ERD-type stuff, server config, etc.  The bonus I’m looking for is as I build this in Notion, and adjust relationships, this would all update automatically in Miro.  So I would solve the huge problem of diagramming in Miro, but then being left with the diagram being almost instantly out-of-date due to work being done in Notion that has to be represented on the fly in the Miro Diagram. I have thought about the same thing in Coda already, as they have an API live.  If anybody has any thoughts here I’d greatly appreciate it. I actua

Identify changes in Miro Widget

Hello,We would like to identify when an widgets(text/image) is updated and based on that we want to perform some actions. Currently there is no event type to indicate if the widget is being updated (We are not interested in WIDGETS_TRANSFORMATION_UPDATED which fires the position/size changes)Supported EventType: "SELECTION_UPDATED" | "WIDGETS_CREATED" | "WIDGETS_DELETED" | "WIDGETS_TRANSFORMATION_UPDATED" | "ESC_PRESSED" | "ALL_WIDGETS_LOADED" | "COMMENT_CREATED" | "CANVAS_CLICKED" | "DATA_BROADCASTED" | "RUNTIME_STATE_UPDATED" | "METADATA_CHANGED" | "ONLINE_USERS_CHANGED"As a workaround we thought we could use the SELECTION_UPDATED event to trigger the action after widget updated but then there is no modified timestamp against the widget to detect if any changes happened. Is there any workaround or hack to approach this problem?

Has anyone created any API functionality for dates/reminders?

Curious if anyone has successfully made an app in Miro to expand on what’s currently possible with dates (which is not a lot.) Thinking of cards and comments in particular. I know Miro has teased the “coming soon” when you click the new “remind me later” button on the comment side-panel...

Export Board Metadata, Natural Language, Tags, etc

I am trying to better analyze a very complex board formed from the:https://wiki.p2pfoundation.net/Main_PageBecause of it’s complexity I was hoping to access its objects from this python client (which wraps around the REST API)https://github.com/jasonlarkin/miro-python-client/blob/develop/gameb.ipynbhttps://github.com/jasonlarkin/miro-python-client/blob/develop/miro/client.pyI noticed this topic came up recently:https://community.miro.com/got-a-question-ask-the-community-45/export-pictures-and-full-board-from-miro-2258I don’t necessarily need to export pictures, just the natural language associated with any metadata would be helpful.  As of now this metadata is missing (see gameb.ipynb) Having this metadata could enable semantic analysis of the board which could compliment the same analysis on this wiki which was used to seed the board:https://wiki.p2pfoundation.net/Main_PageMy plan is to perform analysis in this vein:https://www.mdpi.com/1999-5903/8/2/14/htmand publish the results. Gra

Board sync bug

Hi, Recently I have been testing my board extension in numerous real working enviroment boards instead of my test boards. The main difference was widget count on these boards, while I have made 20-30 widgets when testing these boards have 500+ widgets with some exceeding 5000 ( including handwriting where each stroke counts as a widget, these make up a lot of the total). The core of the problem is:miro.board.widgets.update({ "id" : widgetID2,// just a widget id the user assigns to a certain layer "clientVisible" : false // makes the widget not visible })when I do this, even if I only hide a few (4-5) widgets on a massive 1k+ widget board. The board becomes unresponsive after a few seconds prompts up a “syncing” modal like this:At this stage there are 2 outcomes: boards under 1k widgets: The sync takes it’s time anywhere from 2-3 seconds to 30 seconds. Then makes the board available to the user again. This is kind of frustrating since

Confirmation on modal close

Dear Miro team,My users need to edit a text in modal, after the edition is done, they may forget to save the changes, and the changes should not be lost by their reckless clicks on somewhere outside of the modal (which causes the modal to be closed).Can I listen ‘to on modal close event’ and ask the user to confirm closing the editor?Thanks,Mohsen Bazmi
