Create Miro Objects via API

Hello, I am at the  beginning of development project to populate Miro board using API. Checking API reference at https://developers.miro.com/reference I can’t find enough details for what I need.My requirements are:For a board <xxx>Create/update card widgetsI found Get Current User Boards API which returns all boards current user has access to. I can then loop through to find the board I need and start adding/updating cards.Card widget JSON does have tags field. Is there any way to add tags via API?Are there any examples of end-to-end similar functionality (including authentication)?

baackgroundColor property for miro.board.widgets.create method

I have the following code to recursively create a custom sticky widget from a CSV inside a web plugin. miro.board.widgets.create({ "type": "sticker", "style": { "backgroundColor": "#ea94bb", "fontFamily": "Bangers", "textAlign": "right" }, "text": data[i][filter], "x": ( 220 * horizontal ), "y": ( 220 * vertical ) })Regardless of what color I substitute in the backgroundColor property, I cannot get the stickies to generate as that color. They always get created yellow. I have run this same method with the “shape” widget and I get the correct specified background color. It there some nuanced approach to coloring stickers that I am just overlooking? I have been through the API documentation at least two dozen times.

I don't understand the "Miro REST API" description

Hi.Сan you explain the meanings of the "Miro REST API" events, please? For example:account_created account_default_project_sharing_settings_changed account_invitation_settings_changed account_external_collaborators_enabled account_integration_settings_changed user_invited_to_account I think “account = team”, right?I want to understand it before using API and getting logs.Thanks!p.s.

How to enable thumbnail for iframe widget

Hi!I’m wondering if there’s a way to add thumbnail for my custom iframe code? I noticed that some popular embed providers like Youtube and Soundcloud have thumbnails, but if would be cool if I can somehow enable thumbnails (preferably using some kind of API) for my own iframe.How come some iframes have thumbnails and some don’t? Does Miro use Embed.ly behind the scene to get extra data to display?

Update react state inside miro listener doubles with each request

I'm developing a webapp where I listen to the selected event on any board component and update the state on the react component, however, after each request, the listener is being triggered 2x compared to the last selection event.The code is as follows:function myComponent() { const [counter, updateCounter] = useState(0); miro.onReady(() => { miro.addListener("SELECTION_UPDATED", () => { console.log("selection updated triggered"); updateCounter((counter) => counter + 1); }) }) return ( <div>{counter}</div> )} The counter values is doubling the values like follow: 0, 1, 3, 7, 15, 31…Can someone help me understand what's going on?

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.

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

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?

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.
