Option to make an entire object a clickable hyperlink
I use the Link to very often. While the current functionality of having little blue arrow at the top-right corner of an object function as the clickable hyperlink is absolutely sufficient, there are times when I could like to make the entire object clickable.
Example of the current solution using a button from the wireframe library (my use case):
What I would like to have happen is
the cursor turns into a pointer; and
be able click activate the link by clicking anywhere on the object.
Example:
I would like to see this new option be available for any object to a Link can be applied.

While we wait for this feature, just reviving an old tip shared by @Jonathan White at HiroStudio.co!
if you want the internal Link to arrow to be pointing to the left, you can
An oldie but a goodie @Robert Johnson. One additional tip is to play with the size of the box you will use for the link. At different levels of zoom, the blue link arrows can get smaller or disappear altogether. Make sure to zoom out on your board to ensure your boxes are sized to make your link as visible as you need it to be.
This is a HUGE need for our development team as well. Please add large clickable buttons/hyperlinks.
Its an embarassement to wait for so long for such simple and intuitive feature.
This feature would basically enable clickable wireframes in Miro. Why we still haven’t got this simple feature is unfathomable
The following idea has been merged into this idea: All the votes have been transferred into this idea.
As others requested, I also want to have this feature but along with a shortcut for the blue arrow. Kindly prioritise this.
It's ridiculous. I suppose Miro has at least one usability consultant, who strongly advises against such a feature. This has been a great idea for the past four years, and 5,684 people have been searching for a solution. But who cares? Why is this thread even in the “ideas” category and not in “bugs”.
Oh wait, I’ll check this one:
(after watching, 6 hours later...) Hmmm …. no. But lots of the exciting AI stuff we all waited for. And a study in the agile community.
And Jira Integration! Oh! News alert! On February 15, 2024, Atlassian officially, and quietly, ended the official ‘life’ of its popular Jira Server product 🤣 (sorry, that’s just out of pure frustration)
come on, @Brie can we have clickable objects. please?
@Heinz Abegglen Agreed. when your product have basic usability bugs, who cares about AI?
Hi everyone,
Thank you for your feedback and for continuing the discussion on this. We understand the frustration and recognize how beneficial clickable objects would be for many of our users, especially when creating interactive wireframes and workflows.
The team is constantly reviewing suggestions and collecting all your votes and use cases to prioritize it accordingly.
In the meantime, for those looking for temporary workarounds, you can still use linked shapes and text as shared earlier in the thread by @Robert Johnson and @Jonathan White, and I encourage you to keep sharing your specific use cases so that we can pass them along to the product team.
Thanks again for your patience and input!
Having a clickable button or an object that can convert to a link or button is really an essential functionality.
A button to link to another element, page or text to an internal page element is urgently needed. External link buttons.
Please add this functionality. its desperately needed.
pls add a clickable object/button that you can link to other areas of the page. It would make the presentations have a broader use. Its a critical function. thanks
Why is this still not a feature 3 years later? Looks like I’m leaving Miro.
Please add this functionality. its desperately needed! Especially because currently the “clickable” link is dependant on the zoom-level. So on a board with a lot of content you have to zoom in deeply in order to “activate” the clickable link-symbol. Miro newbies stumble over this often. I would also appreciate, if it would be possible to link a picture completely, not only in the tiny link-symbol in the right upper corner.
Based on how long this has been ignored, I feel like there is some myopic security concern, patent infringement concern, or compliance requirement of a whale of a client keeping this from becoming a reality for the masses. Hey devs, if it is security, what if you allow it for intra-board only (Prezi had this a decade and a half ago, although jump-to would also be nice vs. pan-to, Figma has it, etc). For external links, at lease make the arrow link scalable and able to be styled. If it is not any of the three issues mentioned, please innovate! The current solution is the most minimum viable crap our team and clients have had to deal with in a while. I would be evangelizing Miro to so many more clients if you cleaned up this one issue. It really would be a great alternative to other app prototyping tools or complex process/production explanation/visualization! It’s crazy that this is a wireframing tool and you have this non-intuitive, so completely OFF standard UI/UX method for navigating! I would be willing to sign an NDA to get the straight story about what’s going on here!
I also just saw what round of funding they are in. That might also add to the reasons why they aren’t focusing on the actual community and power-users of the tool anymore. Save money, sub growth!
Does anyone have an workaround. The actual Link Feature is just unusable.
I really need this feature too.
