How to correctly use bringForward() and sendBackward() Miro board functions

Hi, I’m trying to use bringForward() and sendBackward() Miro board functions which I found here: https://github.com/miroapp/app-examples/blob/master/miro.d.ts (line 351 - 357) I assumed this only needs the widget id’s in an array but when I tried with some test data it doesn’t actually change the widget “priority” AKA doesn’t send them forward or backwards. Tried something like this: `sendbackward(arrayOfWidgets)` where arrayOFWidgets were a few selected widgets from current boardIs there a specific use case that has to be done like with miro.board.commands , where they have to be in a miro on ready block? Or am I missing something else?  Thanks for any suggestions

"Pin" a board on free plan so it does not become view-only?

Our free team has a main board that we need to ensure stays collaborative and not view-only. Is there a way to pin this board so it will not be auto-reverted to view only? If not, we need that feature, such that reverting to view-only isn’t a function of when the board was created, but of the team’s prioritization of boards.

Move boards without membership

My colleague attended a practice and joined their team which is a free plan. Now she has created boards with some other colleagues inside our own company, but associated with the practice team, and I’m trying to move the boards, but it seems that the training team has to be a member?

Settings for a web-plugin

Hi all!How do I set up my plugin to have settings on the Apps&Integrations page? I would like to give the user some configuration options.Alternatively, I guess this can be done with a modal view (to configure) and a hidden widget (to store). Is that a good approach? Are there better ways to let the user configure a plugin?Thanks for your help :)

Board Owner VS Admin Rights VS Collaborator

Hi, I have admin rights for our Miro Boards but I am not able to see this screen when I go to the share screen. Do you have to be the owner of the board or a collaborator to be able to see this and to see the advance settings. Thank you in advance, Sharon

Saving boards

Hi I’m trying to export a board as a pdf or an image.  Mira says it  is exported - but I can’t for the life of me find where it is stored on my laptop.  I’ve looked everywhere including having checked the download folder several times. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Сonfetti / celebration ?

Is it correct that there is no celebration /  confetti tool in Miro yet?It would be really helpful to have such a feature. In workshops its always nice to celebrate the end of a section in a workshop.

Password reset email

Hi Communinity, Does anyone know how long it takes to receive an email from Miro incase you perform a password reset? I would expect that would be more or less instant. But I have a member that didn’t receive any email after 30 min and still hasn’t.

Expand pdf pages - change in rights?

Hey all, I just mentioned that I can not expand or flip pages in an pdf file on the board. This is strange as I am the owner of the board and using the consultant plan. Even stranger, that it worked before.I found out that only the person copying the file on the board is able to extract the pages. A doubled file does lose this ability. Is this a course of changes in rights? Can I change this? Greetings from germanyJan

Why is my board is locked and how to fix it?

We are on a free plan, we have only two boards, and one of them, which we need for a public workshop tomorrow - is locked! We have never upgraded our plan. We have had 30 team members on this board, but we expect more of them. Does anyone know what is the problem and how to fix it?

Wordle type word clouds?

Trying out Miro features and comparing to other options. For some of my work, it is useful to be able to generate Wordle type ‘word clouds’. Is anybody doing this with Miro? I understand that is possible within Stormcloud, for example. Grateful for any wisdom and advice from this community.

Can't lock objects

Hi, when I try to group these 3 objetcs I can’t. I mean, I can group a sticky note with a connection line (arrow) but when I try to goup with a part of the mind map, the group does not work.I did a whole mind map so I use an arrow whith a sticky note to put “a focus” or “pending” or whatever I need to write in each sticky note on that part of the mind map. So when I add more ideas (lines) to the mand map, the objetive is that the arrow and sticky note move with the mind map line. I cannot group these 3 objects so every time a add more ideas, all the arrows and sticky notes don’t move (are a lot) so I forget with part of thye mind map has the arrow+sticky note.Please help, thank you so much.Roberto

I can move more than 1 object at the same time (post-its etc)

CORRECTION; I CAN`T move more than 1 object at the same time (post-its etc)When I am logged in to Miro I can no longer mark more than 1 objekt in order to move for example more then 1 post it at the same time. It worked before when I used my laptop mouse tracker, but not since I installed my new mouse.No matter how I try to choose the “pointer” i still  get only “the hand” that is just moving the bord around and not any objects. It´s very disturbing. Thank you for any recommendations of how to solve this issue. Best regardsElisabeth

No access as owner

I created a mindmap in Miro. When I wanted to share it, I tried changing the setting in a way that the other people could only comment on it, not change it. However, not it says I myself have only commenting rights and now I cannot edit my own board. I can’t find an option to change it back and am looking for help.

Card Due Dates pulling wrong

Has anyone else experienced an issue where the due date on your card does not match the “date” field when pulled from Miro?  This is happening in about 50% of the cards I am pulling and for all of them the incorrect date is one day ahead of the correct assigned date.  eg. if the due date is “Nov. 12” the output json from a Python Requests API pull will say “Nov. 13”.   I have not noticed any correlation with when the cards were created or modified.

Hi, everybody.I have been having big troubles working on miro with my IpadPro since the latest ipad os actualizations.The toolbar simply disappears after trying to select a command.

Does miro support the idea of an icon with attached text? (without manual grouping)

Bottom line. If icons or pictures could come with a built in text box below them that can be blank or filled in I’d be an extremely happy camper.  Is there a feature I’m missing? If not can I get this in as a feature request?--------------------------------I’m working hard to get adoption within our organization for using miro for problem solving through discussion mapping.  The folks are generally tech savvy but not sure that they are going to like learning something new.  This technique involves using simple icons like question mark, light bulb, minus, plus and “i”.  I’ve used many other graphical planning tools. The best one’s I’ve got attach a text box to whatever icon you’ve got. As I work with the group on the questions the whole process is constantly interrupted by having to for example grab a post it note, select or cut/paste a question mark, then group the question mark with your post-it, and only then being able to write your text.  In the last session I was working with a gr

File Type and Size Restriction

Hi all,I am a personal and enterprise account user of Miro  and for both use cases, Miro has revolutionised my workflow!As per my Enterprise account, whilst we go through internal processes to get Miro onboarded there was a question in regards to File Uploads to a Miro board and whether restrictions can be placed on the file type or the size of the file uploaded (*)? This functionality is something that we see available to us with other collaboration tools.Is anyone aware if this is possible?Many thanks,George(*) Note: I am aware as per Miro’s Supported File Formats page on the supported file formats and that there is a max file upload of 30MB.
