Do anonymous board editors, external board editors, and external board viewers and commenters require licenses?

Hi, can someone please give more information on anonymous board editors, external board editors, and external board viewers and commenters? Do any of these roles require licenses? And what is the difference between them?  We are thinking of licensing Miro, but need to understand how this works to know how many licenses we would need to buy.

The number of boards Miro says a user has access to seems irrelevant.

When I go into active users it will say someone has access to one board yet they can access any of them. It says I have access to 11 but I can also access any of them. How do I fix this? If we have consultants that should only have access to one board this is a huge security flaw.

Hi there! Is it possible to export Miro Mind Map with keeping the hierarchy? I’ve tried to export in CSV, but I get a flat list of items. Maybe it is possible using API?

Can unknown users join our team without our permission?

Hi All! I am really happy to use miro, it is a piece of a nice digital product. Unfortunately, my team came across a surprising event. We were using the free plan for testing and we added to the team a few members. One month later 20 unknown users appeared in our team. Is this a bug or in the free plan miro community gains access to our content and can join our team without our permission?

Lost all comments when copy-pasting image with comments to another board - restore?

Can I restore the image in the initial board without having a backup, ie: restore to "2 hrs ago"? It's more than a few clicks ago so I cannot use the "back” arrow and I don't have a board backup,  thanks!

Hey, I got shared Miro board URL with me, and I can open it in my browser. But I cannot find any option in Miro’s Windows App to open there this board from URL. Is it even possible, or for URL-shared boards I can view them only via Webbrowser?

Making a single board visible in two or more projects

How can I add a board to two different projects? (Sort of like having a "shortcut" file in one folder and the real file in another folder in Microsoft land). ie NOT a copy, but the same file (board) accessible directly from two different projects. Thx

Instructions to users

Card Icons. Hierarchical Tags, RDF I/O

Hi there, I'd like to do 4 things. I'm wondering if someone has done these, or if there's a simple way to "hack" the functionality. Thanks! 1. Cards with icons. I'd like to be able to add an icon to a card. 2. Hierarchical tags. I'd like to have nesting in tags to import an existing hierarchy. 3. Import RDF. I'd like to create an importer of RDF files, so it would map them to a visual. 4. Export RDF. I'd like to take my mappings and export them to RDF.

Any way to lock the edge of a board?

Sorry if this has been asked before… Is there any way to ‘lock’ the edge of a board so that you cant go any further left, for example. I have a list of tiles that I want to always be on the left of the board, and no one should be able to put anything before them.

Team members unable to authenticate

currently working on a toy project for rolling dice. it needs read/write on a board.  https://github.com/megonemad1/MiroDicePostIt I’ve tried a bunch of different things. but i keep getting either “A client must have at least one registered redirect URL” or “A redirect_uri must be supplied.”   I’ve tried a bunch of different things any ideas? I’m aware: 'https://' + window.location.host + '/success.html' results to the wrong thing for github pages. fixing that doesn't fix the problem

How to horizontally/vertically distribute groups that contain frames?

Not sure why I can distribute (horizontally & vertically) groups of objects, but as soon as frames are part of groups, I can’t distribute them? The menue option isn’t there - I get offered un-group, only.

Indicator when lines are horizontal or vertical

When creating wiring diagrams for UI’s for example, or creating UML sequence diagrams you need to draw a lot of horizontal and vertical lines.  It would be really helpful if there could be some visual indication when drawing or extending lines that the are horizontal or vertical - a bit like the indications when you have something aligned with something else.

Dimensions of a board

I struggle with the dimensions of the templates and frames on my Miro-Board. My case is:  I have a Miro Board with different activities, for each activity I made a frame of template.  All the frames together, are the flow of the workshop.  But how do I know how big the frames must be? When is it big enough for the participants to have a good overview, to read the text in the frames when they zoom in? And how are my letters?  What is a good size of the frame to get a good structure of your board? Or, is anybody willing to share his or her template? So that I have an example?  Thanks a lot,  Mireille

Gray boxes around handwritten text

Hello, I am using Miro as a whiteboard replacement for my online quantum mechanics course at the University of Warsaw. So far everything is very smooth, the only thing that students have complained about is the fact that whenever I write something it appears inside a gray box with my initials. Sometimes this box does contain an entire word, but just a single letter (or even part of it), which makes it quite distracting. I understand that this is supposed to tell the others who is writing what but in my case, I am the only person writing on the board, so there is really no need for that.   Is there a way of switching off this feature so that no gray boxes appear when I write (either on my side or on the student side)?   thanks a lot! jedrek

Combine User Story Maps into one?

We created several user story maps for different parts of the process to ease facilitation. Now we’re reviewing those maps and want to combine all three into one and clean up overlap.  Is there a way to connect the end of one map’s backbone to the start of the next map’s backbone?

Is it possible to take a group of stickies and connect them so they move like a mind map?

I have created a group of stickies from client discussions and as I link them together I realize that it would be helpful to connect them into a mind map. Is it possible to easily perform this task? I’ve connected them but when I move them around the connected cards do not move and flow like a mind map which would be helpful.   Thanks, Glenn

Presentation mode link and video playback

Hi there,  I am a very happy Miro customer since a long time. I work in the entertainment industry as a creative and I have been using the board as my main creative tool and platform, mainly to organize my ideas with thorough mind maps and collaborative brainstorming session with my collaborators.  Recently I have been working on my presentation skillset within Miro with the goal to switch to this platform for all my client presentations (replacing Keynote). In my business line, very often we go through a preliminary remote phase when we have to send out a presentation deck to the client for a preview (before we even get to meet them in person). I thought it would be very useful to use Miro for this purpose cause I could embed video references to play within the presentation and boost the presentation effectiveness.  Unfortunately I found out that it is not that easy cause of the following issues: I couldn’t find a direct link to the board’s presentation mode (just a workaround copying

Is there a way to make objects into groups via SDK?

I currently am making an app that has cards that you can move around inside the board, and just want one SVG image of the card and have text that I can change since the messages can be changed from time to time, and making hundreds of SVG images with different text is not exactly ideal.   So I want to be able to create and image object and group it up with text, so I can drag the card around and have both image and text intact.
