If This Then Miro. Deeper Density. and Vasting Up.

Right now Miro seems mostly about people starting things. I’m sure Miro has a frequency distribution showing how many boards people make. Over time, how many times they come back, factors driving repeat usage, tipping point between trying a few boards and being hooked on Miro, factors driving sharing and collaboration. IFTTM. I want to know about scale and how miro will help with scale. With APIs, other tools can generate boards. Like the manager who had more than a thousand pdfs for his team to annotate. People who meet could connect miro to calendaring and conferencing apps to trigger templated boards and automatically invite the right folks to contribute. Software developers might have a project’s issues not just added to a an existing kanban but start a scorecard board for each issue for a team to weigh in. There might be thousands of boards per worker, most generated automatically to lay the ground for further work.  Overwhelm ahead. But nothing in the user experience suggests any

[RESOLVED] Zoom on Firefox v88 doubles every time you zoom in/out

Same issue. It was always working fine, but since today it has weird jumps.(5% →21% → 91% → 400%)It’s the same board too.

Using stylus to write instead moves board around

Hi,Very new to Miro.The only feature I am expecting to need to use is writing on the board using a stylus and the pen mode, however when I try this, sometimes it writes and other times it moves the board around. This has happened on multiple different devices, although the stylus isn’t great so that may be relevant.Does anyone know a way to stop the board from moving around when trying to write?Thanks for your time.

getWidgetMenu loses default icons

Hello, I am trying to add a custom icon to the menu for a given widget, this is the code for doing so:function jiraCard() {  miro.board.ui.openModal('modal.html',{ width: 400, height: 600 }).then(() => {    miro.showNotification("modal closed");  });}miro.onReady(() => {  miro.initialize({    extensionPoints:{      getWidgetMenuItems: (widgets) => {        return{          tooltip: 'Estimate',          svgIcon: '<circle cx="12" cy="12" r="9" fill="none" fill-rule="evenodd" stroke="currentColor"       stroke-width="2"/>',          onClick: async (widgets) => {            jiraCard()          }        }     }   } })})The problem is that this code makes all the default widgets disappear, so that the only button the menu is the custom widget that I am defining. Is there anyway to prevent this problem?

Collaboration with 3rd party customers

I would like to use the collaboration feature with 3rd party group that does not have a Miro login. I have a paid subscription to Miro and would like to create a board, invite my customers for collaboration and feedback but will they require a login?  If so, can i create a generic login for them and have them use the same account for easy of use?

Stickies have Shadow to represent Depth but affects Aligning Corners

Does anyone find the UX of the Stickies snapping location annoying?I prefer that they snap directly to the physical corner of the Sticky and not offset.Also, the Sticky shadow does nothing for me… if this takes up Board Memory I prefer performance (speed of loading) than seeing this.

How to delete this notifications?

Hi, one of my guests has been editing our board after we closed our session. But here changes are good. But now I see signs of her editing everywhere on the board. And I cannot delete them (see the red signs for what I mean). Does everyone knows how I can delete the “Guest, 19 hours ago” notifications?

When sharing a board outside the team via link, why is the Password prefilled with the user's own Miro password?

When I click to share my Miro board and I choose to set a Password, the Password field is pre-filled with my own Miro login password - which I would never share with anyone.Why is this field pre-filled with anything other than a randomly-generated password?Thank you!P.

Can't copy/paste from one board to another

I have created 3 boards in which I have consolidated answers from different user groups on a frame. I am trying to copy these frames with the sticky notes to a “general” board so I can compare and work from there to show the client an overview. I’ve tried using command + c / command + v, as well as the triple dot → copy / right-click → paste flows, but neither works.  Both those methods work fine when I’m copying and pasting on the same board. But, I cannot copy and paste between the boards, nothing at all. Not the frames, not the individual sticky notes. I have checked and I am in my shared team account, the boards are in the same “project”. I found these articles but the solutions simply don’t work. I cannot duplicate the boards and work from a duplicate because I have 3 of them (with a lot of information) so I will loose information either way, and I don’t feel like typing over 100+ stickies x 3.  Does anybody know how I can copy a frame to another Miro board? Found answers that are

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)?

Best Practices using Miro embedded in MS Teams (especially user access)?

Hi all - I reviewed some similar questions, but nothing quite fit, or was old enough to potentially be out-of-date. Use Case: Miro board created within MS Teams using the plug-in.The members of the MS Team all need access to the board(s), but are not part of the official Miro ‘team’ that I appear to be part of (e.g., the group where my boards show up when I log in directly to Miro).  So I can’t use the name selection tool/checkboxes; and that larger Miro group contains people that shouldn’t have access to these boards, so I can’t give the whole group access even if my MS Teams users were added to that Miro group. I ended up giving the first few users access by typing in their emails one at a time, but if the project grows to dozens (or hundreds) of people (who are all added to the MS Team site), that leaves me managing separate (and redundant) security settings in Miro - more work and opportunity for error.This could get even more complicated if people change roles and I need to track

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.
