  • Embed Miro board into Miro Board: make the iFrame update the way embedded Google Docs do.

Embed Miro Board “A” into Miro Board “B”. 

 

This is an obscure and awesome feature in Miro … If you haven’t tried it… try it.

  • You can ‘export’ board as an iFrame. (upload/export button, ‘Embed’)

 

  • You can import “Paste iFrame code” ( ‘...’ at bottom of left toolbar )
  • You can get an activate-able iFrame of board “A” in board “B” 
    • which is cool.. inside board “B” you can tunnel into board “A” and at least scroll around the content of board “A”.  Think of it more a window than a door at this point. 
  • Wish List item would be: 
    • 1) at least make the content/state of the embedded iFramed board (board ‘A’ in our example) be updated upon each click/activation of the iFrame. ( This is how the embedded ‘live’ Google Docs feature works. What happens now is that once activate an iFrame of Miro board A in Miro board B that state of board A is cached and never changed until you refresh or close/open B. Which means you can never get ‘live’ updates of things changing in A. 
    • 2) at best go so far as to enable editing of A through B… in so far as you have editing auth in A as you have done in the google docs scenario (I realize its probably sizable lift what with the transfer of permissions and user auth… and board sharing is still pretty beta in Miro overall )

The ability to embed an <iFrame></> is my number one reason for using miro - I use iSpring to make html5 animated presentations and miro is the only board i know that allows me to access them from the board

 

What i’d REALLY like is if i could make their display something that is pushed to all board users when presenting - Thats probably th esame mechanism needed @Max Harper as your needing

 

Simular functionality is now in beta: https://help.miro.com/hc/en-us/articles/21211471744018-Synced-copies-BETA

Thanks for leaving the update on the thread, ​@StevenHP ! I’m sure other users will find it helpful in the future. :}
