References Miro On prem

Dear community members, Are you aware of any other customers using miro who is able to talk about the different options about being able to set up Miro safely / properly / on premise.My customer now frequently use Miro boards via Vmware which is going to be too much in the long run.Now they are investigating how they as organization could set it up theirselves, but the account structure and how to set it up is not clear for them.How can I find out how other customer are  doing is and how my customer could organize it? Are you aware of any customers who can speak about this and wish to speak to this customer. Thanks a lot and looking forward hearing from you.Best,Patty

Rest API: Send to Back/Bring to Front

Is there a way to change the layering of widgets on a board via the rest api?I get inconsistent layering, i think due to race conditions sending create widget requests. From what i can tell the more recently added widgets always end up on top, but i  can’t find a way to add a widget behind ones that already appear on the board.I assume i’m missing something? Thanks for the helpMokes

Miro with IPad Pro (first generation 2015) sketching - slow, delayed, lagging. How’s the performance on new IPad Pros?

I’m using a 5 yr old IPad Pro as my sketching tool in Miro.This is all I use my IPad for, however I’m noticing that sketching often starts lagging on Miro, which is leading me to think about upgrading to a newer model.Does anyone notice performance issues on the new IPads with Miro?

Share a board with individual members - not collaboratively

Hi everyone….I have been using the AWW app (recently acquired by Miro) for a while now in my Science classes to encourage collaboration and participation. It has an option which allows me to share a template board with each of my students so that they work on their own individual board (no collaboration). AWW calls this an “assignment”. I can then go and open each of my students boards to see their progress. Is there a similar facility in Miro?Thanks-a-mil for your assistance with this!Kind regards,Mike

Changing board ownership

Hello,I am a teacher and have a free account. I use miro in my class and have students set up whiteboards as part of a team project. I am preparing for a new class and would like to clean up my account. I’d like to keep many of the boards as examples and delete the others. Many boards are empty and I think they were set up by mistake, these are all called “My First Board.” I’d like to delete these to make room for new ones. I am the owner of the account but the students are the owners of the boards, including these empty ones. How can I delete these boards? Thank you for your help!

Display suddenly shows everything (but the board content) in large style

Hello there,I’m new to the community :) I hope you can help me with my problem. After inserting a kanban template to my board, everything suddenly appears in huge size: toolbars, title etc. Its not a computer issue, as every other tab and window is still in normal size, just the miro environment suddenly shows everything in large. Does anybody know how to change the settings? Thanks in advance! Lisa

Random images/post-it

Do you know if there is a plug in (or other mode) in Miro to randomly show an image (or other object in Miro)? It would like randomly shown an image (chosen at random from a predetermined group) in a specific place in the Miro Board (always the same position) or linking, always randomly, to one of the images/objects placed on the board. Thanks!

Miro data protection (GDPR) - 24 links from miro app to internet

Wow! Really??My firewall gave me 24 warnings directly after starting the Miro app on macOS (please see list at the end).My first impulse is to choose NO for all and deinstall this greedy application immediately...Of course there are a few sites that has to be called, when ever I decide to install an external app, but even in this case, there is no need to contact all of them right from the beginning. googleanalytics and doubleclick are known for collecting very much data from users surfing the internet. Normaly I can manage this in my browser settings or I am getting data protection popups at the beginning where I can decide what is o.k. for me and what is not.But in this case I am using the miro Application not a website!!And nobody without a better firewall would even notice that the miro app is contacting 24 sites and might be sending personal data to third parties. I did not check them all for what they are doing.Bottom line: instead of storing my prefs like language, fonts etc. lo

Help...Students cant download PDFs??

HI, I am a board owner and running a training session using MIRO.  We have some imbedded PDFs in the board, which in the past people have been able to select and then just choose the arrow to download, however now they cant and they just get a grey arrow?  I have looked at some topics on here and they say to change the permissions to “Anyone with Board Access” but I dont have that option?  Any ideas as this is vital to our sessions!!!!

How to link grouped items

I want to be able to add a caption to items with links, but when I group the caption with the item, the links disappear. The user has to double click on the item to select it within the group before the link appears. Is there a way to add a link to the group as a whole so that is not hidden?

Voting options greyed out for users

My team reported issues on a voting session we had today.I have prepared a voting session in advance that was limited to cards in a certain section of the miro board, but when it came time to vote, some of the cards were greyed out for the voters.I recreated the voting session on the fly, but users still reported that some of the cards were greyed out.Has anyone else had this experience? What can be done to troubleshoot it?Note:The cards were all within the area defined for the voting All the team are licenses full members

'Last modified by' should only include ACTUAL changes made to the sticky note.

Last modified by: should only note the actual CHANGES made to the sticky note. NEW field idea:Last MOVED by.  This can cause miscommunication among team members. Editing someone else’s sticky note then having someone MOVE it would mask the identity of those who actually EDITED the note!

Lock frame size

Hi, I have a question.I would like to have a 3x3 Matrix where I can drag and drop items and sort them.By using frames that is possible to some extent. It will automatically snap the card to the first position and then next, starting from upper left. I would like to have the possibility to drag a card to another position first.I tried to create 9 frames, so that only one card can be snapped into a frame.That works if you don¨t try to add another card into the same frame. If I do that the frame size increase to fit both cards. Is it possible to avoid that, byt locking the frame size. The lock function only helps me to not move the frame.I can have a picture in the back with guiding lines =“frame” for fixing this, but I like to use the snap function in this case as well.  Is there a way to fix this or another workaround?It would be better if the second card will be snapped over the other card than changing the frame size in my exercise.

Default select tool instead of hand

in every Miro board I create, the hand tool (V) is the default instead of the select tool (pointer) which causes great and unnecessary confusion for participants, especially new users. Can I force the boards  to default to the select tool? Thanks in advance, Rich
