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 So I would solve the huge problem of diagramming in Miro, but then being left with the diagram being almost instantly out-of-date due to work being done in Notion that has to be represented on the fly in the Miro Diagram.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

Simple random number generator?

Would there be a quick and dirty way to create a random number widget/addin which could be used for things like simulating a coin flip or rolling a dice?  Right now, I’m using an external URL to Google Dice but would prefer something which didn’t require learners to jump out of their class boards. Thanks! Kiron

Manipulation only - no new board elements?

Hi community, I’m keen to experiment with extending the Miro board with other apps that can be dropped onto the board and used by the team. E.g. and embedded version of Figma, a file store or a coding environment. I can’t use the iFrame widget for this as it defaults to just showing a preview - I want it to show the actual content of the remote session (likely with some kind of user locking mechanism). Am I correct in my understanding however that the widgets/API can only be used to create apps that manipulate existing board items (e.g. place post its) vs create new board entities (e.g. premium post it). Thanks for your help! Luke
